The model is a match for my 1/1 and I didn't know it existed before it disappeared off the shelves!

I've seen it a few times from a Japanese seller on ebay but at jacked up prices.

If that was an offer thanks Dennis but you won it fair and square and I'll find one eventually...

hope you enjoy it. I do have the FM version that has been corrected by Paul Hettick to match mine.

Technically the Kenney car was a 1961, but was upgraded to 1962 grill and front end after delivery to the White House. That's why I referred to them as 1962s, because they look like 1962s, not like 1961s.
