Here's a nice one from Automodello. When this model was announced, I really wasn't really aware of the 1:1. I vaguely recall seeing photos and reading a bit about it, but the car never really entered my radar.

When it was announced, I looked into more about it and was intrigued by the style and design of the 1:1 and the story of its creation.

If I remember correctly, this was the inaugural release from Automodello, announced in 2011. I decided to give this model a try and as well, making it my 1st resin model in 1:24 scale. Pre-order done, I waited for its arrival...

Now here we are, almost 10 years later and with a whole bunch of resin models in my collection (not to mention the 100s in 1:43) I am as pleased with it today as I was when it arrived in March of 2012.
