Great photo of two great cars. I have the red one. The black one is the California kid right?

I've got the California Kid, but missed the Wix model.  Will need to look for it.  Thanks Geno.

@carsman1958 Thanks guys, it is appreciated. John, you can find the Wix model at very reasonable prices. And it is sooooo well done it blows my mind you can get them so cheap.💯

Man, that's a bummer. I'm sure a good one will turn up. There's been more than a few times I've had to wait awhile to get a good model. But yeah, no way I'm paying big money for a damaged model, even if some are an easy fix. It's just wrong to do folks that way.💯
