(Pics) Chevrolet in the 1950's

Correct Mike, in fact, one can collect 1/18 models of "full size Chevrolets"  (Bel Air, Impala, Biscayne, 150, 210, etc..) from 1948 through 1967 with the omission of only a few years: 1949, 1951, 1952

Interestingly, I can't think of any 1/18 models, resin or diecast, of "full size Chevrolets"  from the 1970's.  How is this possible? 🤔 🤔 🤔 

@chris, I think the market is moving toward those years. We're watching it happen in 1/43. Goldvarg made a beautiful model of the '70 Caprice, and there are numerous 1/43 models of luxury cars from the 70s. Several manufacturers have released 1/18 versions of more recent Cadillacs. As the collector demographic begins to age into their prime earning years, those who grew up cruising the new car lots in the 70s will want models of those cars they aspired to.

@jkuvakas Very true John and well said.

@jkuvakas I concur with your assessment, however, I foresee many 1/18 resins but few diecasts.  Personally, I need a "Goldvarg commitment for regular cars,"  coupled with ACME's passion for full-function-metal-diecast all combined with Maisto's pricing strategies! 😀 😀 😀

Right! 🙄 

Because I know $175-$400 1/18 sealed resins of 1970s Chevrolets (and other makes ) are coming but I don't collect resins.  What I really want/collect, I'm unlikely to see. 😔
