This was the 3rd diecast model I purchased. I saw it advertised on the back of "Parade" magazine which was a supplement to our local Sunday paper back in the day. My 1st purchase (found in that same Parade mag) was DM's "blue" '57 Chevy convertible with the closed trunk. My 2nd one (again from a Parade ad) was DM's '49 Mercury Coupe. From these three cars I was hooked. The rest is history.
