they sure did ....thanks Tony.....only one door will stay fully closed (your choice),the bumper`s crooked and in the proper light,at just the correct angle, actually appears to be rusting....talk about REALISTIC !!! 🤨 (faults aside,I LOVE my M2s)

Nice one, John. Model might not be quite perfect but I'd love to have it.
Great photography as usual.

Thank you David 😀 .....I was serious about the faults contributing to the car`s realism......on the strength of this model alone I purchased a trio of `58 Apaches and a Pan Am 1960 Volkswagen Delivery Van

Absolutely !!! I think Boomers are preconditioned to admire complexity in design

Split and oval window bugs are neat. I have this model and the rear engine lid doesn't close all the way so I display it with the lid raised. Cool stuff JB.
