I forgot that I pre-ordered the Burkholder Fiat AA/Altered. It felt like Christmas. It'll be added to my other fuel altered Bantams.

ACME has been busy lately they also have come out with a 1940 Gasser called Rocket Sled Teixeira and another version of it called the 1940 Gasser ACME Rocket Sled.
The only cars I have similar is my 1961 Corvette, 1933 Willys "Ohio George" and 1933 Willys Dirty Thirty all Gassers.

Looks cool Marty, but until I saw YOUR pics I assumed THIS model was simply the old Precision Miniature's 2-piece diecast tooling, with a new livery. But NOW I see that it appears to be a (plastic? ) one-piece, removable body.
My Fiat/Altered is different.... I thought you had one of these (2-piece ) too. 🤔 🤔 At any rate, congratulations! Merry Christmas and thank goodness you have room for this one... 😬 😳 😬

Congratulations Marty. Great pictures and the green background suits the model to a tee.

@chris - Thanks, Professor! This is my first manufactured built Fiat Topolino. Since I totally forgot that I pre-ordered it, the arrival was a very pleasant surprise!
You might recall, I have an unbuilt GMP model which featured a metal body. I kinda like that ACME did a correct plastic body.
