A rarely seen Limited Edition issued in 2006. Mine is #1926 of 5000. These models suffered from strong paint rash and metal fatigue. It's been a bit since I've laid eyes on mine as it is still packed in the box. I took it out about three years ago, all was good. No changes from the initial packing away 8 years ago. The bulk of my 1:24 scale models are still packed away as I still haven't got display space ready for them. Hopefully my retirement will allow for big changes (although my retirement date has become a bit more uncertain) I Dont Know

Nice looking Ford. The 1951 is my favorite Shoe box Ford.
