PICs - Daily Dose of Diecast...Thursday

I know this model has concerns in execution, but I love the color and it's overall presence on the shelf.

1956 Chrysler 300 B Hardtop

John, With all of it's issues I'm glad that the red and black versions are a part of my collection. I too only see three pictures but they are your usual great images.

I see only three pics but they are, as usual, fantastic, John! I have this red one.

I'm on the lookout for a black one if I can find it at a good price. Sure, this might not be perfect but few of our models are when compared to the actual 1:1 cars. We can always find something that is not quite right.

I have this red one and also the black one. Despite the car not being perfect in replication, they are treasured pieces on my shelves. Wouldn't it have been great if we'd been able to get a white one too from Danbury?

Thanks for the awesome photos as usual John!

I want a black one as well. Unfortunately they are either pricey or have issues.

Yes it has some flaws and misproportions BUT it's unmistakeable for anything but a 300b.
