Unique 1/24

Fast Food Tuesday! Here we have a 1958 Ford Edsel Station Wagon in Mc Donald’s livery from Danbury Mint. 

Not easy to find.  There's one on eBay right now, new in box, buy-it-now for $775.  Too rich for me!

Here is a rare one from my pictures archive ...

My Cardiologist said that he had one of those.

I have the CMC Mercedes in pewter. It's a wonderful model.

Express Wednesday! Today we have a Nanjing Iveco Turbo Daily in Express Home Delivery uniform. The hood, front doors, rear barn doors are functional, and the front wheels are steerable. Most importantly, it is a stick shift  

Four-Wheel Motorcycle Thursday! Here we have JDM Honda S2000 from Ebbro. The S2000 redlines at 8800 RPM. The 2.2-liter 16-valve DOHC VTEC inline-four makes 237 horsepower without a turbo. This little gem is very well made, as you would expect from Ebbro.

Big Wing Friday! Today we have a Ferrari F575 GTC from Redline. This curbside beauty has many photo-etched parts. Redline made several versions with different rear spoilers and towing hooks/rings/straps. The white one in the last picture is from Tecnomodel. The castings are slightly different.  

My first Tecnomodel 575 GTC. Had to repair many things, including recreating one central lug nut, both mirrors, covering the hood with carbon fiber decal... Very nice model, usually underappreciated.

Rotary Monster Saturday! Here we have a Mazda 787B from Spark/Le Mans Miniatures. This fire-breathing four-rotor beast dominated the 1991 Le Mans. Finding it was a challenge, but here it is 😊

French Sunday! Today we have an Automodello 1937 Delahaye 135 in metallic green. You can also get it in metallic blue or aubergine. I thought the green color was rather refreshing. Enjoy! 

I have the aubergine version, its brilliant. Over time I'd happily add the other 2 colours.

I was anticipating this model for years, and it finally came.... Unfortunately I am not happy with its proportions so I have not purchased any of the 3 versions. Still debating whether to add it or not. I am sure all 3 colors are eye-candies. Automodello typically delivers on the colors and finishes...

Bel Air Monday! Here we have a factory-built 1957 Bel Air from Franklin Mint in black. FM ordered the black version in small quantities and sold them to its employees. If I remembered correctly, the item number on the white outer box was covered. I need to dig up the box one of these days.  

Any idea how many of these were made? This combo was not listed in the database. I thought it is a color sample...
