If you don't have that Aerosedan you are missing a fantastic model.

Mark, I agree. This model was introduced toward the end of DM's production of 1/24 models and is one of their best ever.

I agree with both Bob and Mark with regard to the 48. It is one of DM's best. Have it and love it.

I also love the '50 from FM. One of their best releases in my opinion. Have it and the maroon/gray repaint and their light green convertible too. All great cars!

AWESOME PHOTOS!

As a model I agree!! The casting on the Aero is flawless!!

Many diecasts models have bumpy appearing sides of the car. The roof, hood and trunk all are usually casted very flat and smooth but if you look down the sides of most models they appear a bit wavy! Like the car was bondoed. Lol. The latest DM models were just about perfect! This one, the 64-5 Thunderbirds and a few others
