This one is parked within my Chevrolet display. Love it. Outstanding pics of course.

An oldie but decidedly a GOODIE! Great photos John!
beautiful shots John.....after the 1950 car you posted about a week back, and this charmer today,we can safely conclude,that 1950 was a very good year for autos.......I was conceived that year (but whether or not a car played a part in that is unknown)
This is a really nice one, along with it's mate the green convertible.
One of my favorite Franklin Mint models. Have it and love it! I also have the Maroon/Gray Hardtop and the Light Green Convertible versions. All three are great models. Nice memories as always John!

@jack-dodds I agree with you on this set. John, great photos as usual. Between you and Tony, we always get the best!
hear hear to all the above comments! I have all 3 too. Fantastic colour combo on this one.
Jack I have the same two as you.
Since my first car was a '50 Chevy coupe, I decided this was close enough so I brought it home. After looking at it in the display case for a while, I decided it had too many dealer add on trinkets, so I cleaned it up a bit. Removing the sunvisor was the most difficult change. I like it better this way, what do you think?
