Car for Columbo ...
saw your post bellow ...
GAZ Pobeda is not a good fit (BTW Pobeda means Victory). Soviet car from the iron curtain era? ... probably never driven on American roads in the 70's.
Columbo is driving Peugeot 403 Cabriolet, it wasn't made in 1:24 but probably was made in 1:18.
The closest I found is 1960 Peugeot 404 Cabriolet that Welly made in 1:24 (whatever 1:24 means for Welly). Here is a link: Peugeot 404 Cabriolet

good stuff !!!
thanks Chav,I`m grateful for your input...........in the First posting I did on this Columbo project,David Holcombe also suggested the 404......that posting , "What would Columbo drive?" is #56584.......I went with the GAZ over the Peugeot 404 for the taller,more rounded sides.....I`ve already purchased another car that will have to do for now......A 1959 Ford Anglia....it`ll be here tomorrow,so I`ll know soon enough if it will satisfy the Lieutenant
