Me? I like the over the top land yacht: The Turnpike Cruiser. It's pure '50s kitsch.

This Merc was one of my early DM purchases.  I was happy that the connie was deleted.

I never realized how the soft top on the Montclair was decorated. Imagine trying to find a replacement?

Thats exactly what I was thinking before seeing Richs post. I just 'automatically' placed it in the shelf without it. Now I have to try and find its box! Great pics John and Rich, thanks.
