The FIRST die-cast I ever bought in October 1989. It was addiction at first sight. Smile

This '57 wasn't my 1st-1:24; but, it was my 1st DM 1:24. Still love her

A Harbor Blue beauty. I have the second release with the unsealed trunk and upgraded interior.

As I said above, the DM blue 57 Chevy was my FIRST ever diecast. It was the "closed" trunk version.

A few years down the road, I did also add the "open" trunk version of the same car. Interesting that the side fender sphere's are different and the interior a little better. Glad I have both!
