I love the stock version; especially its color.  The custom is cool but not my thing as a collector really.

I am from the custom camp, the blue custom is an amazing piece of diecast. I don't care about the accessories but the stickers, the seat rug and the hula dancer are great touches. The matte paint is flawless.

Both beautiful 1:1 cars and 1:24 models, with exceptionally nice colors on each. They certainly were very nicely done ! In 1/18, I have Hot Wheel's custom 1950 Mercury woody surf station wagon and it is also a wonderful diecast.

Cool! What scale and maker Ralf? I like the black wheels and dog-dish hubcaps!

Thank you, Tony!   It's the same DM Merc as in your pics, wheels and tires repainted black and very dark grey...
