Raffi goes Deco [PIC]

Competing with the likes of Figoni & Falaschi, you have Raffi & Roger's phantom coachwork in the Duesenberg Coupe Simone.This is not a replica, it's a creation... a tour de force of retro-aerostreamline design. This, to me, is talent of another dimension. I love it.

Yeah. It came with its own mythology.

Beautiful! Looks like it shoulda been a character in Pixar's Cars movies.

By far the heaviest 1/24 scale model in my collection.

Great pics of one of my favorite 1:24s. One of the few that I kept and put away

I recall, there was a guy trying to build this car.

He had a Deusey frame. He apparently had contacted Roger. He loved the model and wanted to build a real one.
