Continuing with "The Big One That Got Away" week, here is Wednesday's edition.  

I love the '55 Crown Victoria's!  I have all of the models that both Danbury Mint and Franklin Mint produced of the car, EXCEPT this one!  I've forever been bummed, because when I got this Brochure, it was the usual case of having several other cars already on order, and putting another one in the budget (at the time) just wasn't a prudent decision.  Along with normal expenditures at the time, we were also paying for college tuition for one of our daughters (our choice), and sometimes these little cars had to be rationed.  

So alas, it's on my Bucket List and I'll hope that someday, if it is meant to be, I'll add it to my collection.
