Man, I love that color combo. Sucks I missed out on it. Beautiful model and pics John. It's rarely seen. 😎Â
Another beautiful DM color combo. I wasn't overly fond of this color back in the day but I sure like it now and you don't see it often.
I have the model in this color from both DM and FM. When I was 17, a neighbor came home with one just like this in 1/1 scale. The neighbor was quite elderly at the time but he dearly loved that car. When this model came out it brought memories for me and I thought how much he would have loved a miniature of his car.
Great photos, John, of a totally knock-out color combo car. EXCELLENT comments gentlemen; you fellas make the site!
Beautiful pics of a great color combo on an equally great car. They never sold here in Australia but I'd often see one in the suburb I lived in about 20 years ago, where an enthusiast had imported one. Absolutely blew me away. The blue DM convertible was one of the very first DMs I bought when I discovered ebay about 20 years ago. I've since added the FM Walmart hardtop and 2 CP Nomads. Thanks John!
