This is a really great model by Crown Premiums. A $15 flea market find, brand new, in the box. It is every bit as nice and as detailed as the similar FM model.😊

A really nice one and an incredible bargain ! A great pony car addition and in a terrific color scheme, too.

Geno, great bargain for $15.  I have always said that the Crown Premiums during their time stand up nicely to any DM/FM model for half the price.  I have this one and 6 others in convertibles and hardtops.

 

Correction, I have 3 Convertibles and 6 Hardtops by CP.

@carsman1958 John, you are correct. There isn't a single CP model I have that won't stand toe to toe with the Mint models.💯😊

Geno, great find.  The only diecast I find around here for $15. are broken JADAs and Maistos.  I have seen the CP 1969 Camaros on EBAY but thought the stance was wrong.   After seeing yours I may rethink about getting one.

@grockwood  Gary, get ya one. They are really nice. The stance on mine is on par with my M2 '69 Camaros. 😊
