This 1965 Thunderbird was the state of the (dying) art in 1/24 diecasts. This T-Bird was a pretty cool car back in the day and DM captured the look completely. For me, what puts this model over the top is all the detailing that went into the interiors... the cabin, engine bar and trunk. So much detail and so well crafted.

Well, you all have summed everything nicely. When I received this model and the 64 coupe the first thing I was captivated by were the interiors

I have this model and never noticed the level of detail that your pictures reveal.  Fantastic pictures!

@pete-rovero Honestly. if I didn't photograph these models, I wouldn't have noticed them either. When I started doing pictorial reviews, I found it really revealed so much... good and bad.
