I’ve had this in my collection for 22 years! She’s still perfect, too.

Another mirror image....love it! I recall at one annual D4C meeting at FM headquarter in Media PA...

some of the 1:1 cars were displayed along with an FM counterpart. This took place back in the '90s.

Older tech, but something about this model just jumps out at you and is so “right”

I have this one, the Tinderbox version and the yellow/black convertible. All are great!! The red over black and reversed black over red were nice but were plaqued by disintegrating zymak and paint issues. Finding a good one is like gold teeth on a hen!!
