OK, who has the ultra rare / valuable models?

I have the turquoise 62 WCPD 62 Impala cv, jewel blue WCPD 61 Impala ht, white 56 Mark II, DM 55 Studebaker, DM 33 Pierce Arrow with opening trunk, and a few others. What do you have?

I don't know how valuable it might be, but I did get the Dubonnet Red MKII. I see it was an edition of 1,000. That's about it 'cause I'm mostly a 1/18 guy. Sometimes..no matter the scale..you just gotta get a beautiful model of one of your favorite cars! I love the color and was able to get the model at a 'model show' at the Anaheim Convention Center from Brian.

I have several, but this one comes to mind

Motor City Design Studio '33 Willys Yellow Fever Gasser.

My understanding is they only made 12

Oh baby!!!! Yep, if you ever put that up for auction I'm absolutely certain it would ...

... command some very high dollars! Very, very rare and much sought after and highly desired! Man, I wish I had it!

I HAD the "Smokey's" Hudson. Sold it years ago for $900.

Replaced it with the regular "Pure Premium" one and pocketed the difference.
