Benjamin, please see Richs post above. His pics convinced me to buy one all those years ago! One of my early favorites. Geno also makes a point about the great color combo. A must have for me from the early days.

Yes, buy it! These are pretty reasonable on eBay. I have a total of fourteen DM '55 Oldsmobile hardtops and convertibles. Very well made considering they're almost 30 years old.

It's an old image Ben, DM's first issue, 29 years ago, but still a great model.
