Terrific model. Only one nit to pick.my 1/1 had a matching dash to the paint color rather than the dark color shown here.

They did such a great job with this one...
Even the scale of the steering wheel is really great. usually they are so thick. Absolutely one of my favs....

Thanks for that Bob. I checked out a few online.
Sometimes the Mint's model a car that has been modified. But here's one that sold at Barrett-Jackson:

Not sure if they are the same dash color as DM's or not.

I went back and checked pictures of my car and you are absolutely correct. I guess this old man should have not trusted his memory on a car I sold seven years ago. Sorry about an incorrect post.

My Dads was the same as well, sans the KHs.
