John's DeSoto in Yellow and Charcoal is reminiscent to me in FM's Limited Edition of 500 1958 Corvette in the same basic colors.

Tony great shots. I do not know how I missed this one.
FM & DM came out with the Panama Yellow '58 Corvette. DM's was not a limited edition of only 500 and had a few more advanced & operational features to entice buyers. Their Corvette 'coves' however, were mis-shapened and FM's charcoal was more exact to the 1:1. I have both and appreciate the 'look' of the FM more.

Here's one car in that color palette that I wouldn't mind having in the driveway. The things you find on Rodeo Drive.

@perrone1 Tony I too have both and agree the FM is the better image.
