@lu Great set of Cobra's. But your missing the stars and stripes version, which is the American Flag.  I have 8 Cobra's missing the white and the blue one of yours.

Sample Monday! Here we have a black and silver 1932 Auburn 8-100A Custom Eight Speedster color sample from Automodello. Enjoy! 

I have this one too, I wished they made some in more vibrant colors, I know also there is a blue-silver one in reversed colors of the official D4C model. Just to clarify, this is D4C model, not Automodello. IMHO, these are also not true preproduction samples, they are ultra limited editions, less than 10 of these black-silver Auburns were made.

@chav Thank you for catching the Automodello/D4C issue, and it's always great to have your input.

When this pace car paint scheme was released, someone on this board posted a pic of the front of the pace car and a pic of Bozo the Clown.  The similarities were striking!

Road Warrior Wednesday! Today we have a Ford Falcon XB GT-based Interceptor from Dinkum Classics. This is a resin and white metal car. Unlike later Dinkum Classics 1/24 cars, the Interceptor has resin tires and different packaging.

Beeps Thursday! Here we have a Dodge WC 52 fire truck from Gonio. It has a pressed steel body with diecast chassis. Highly recommended!

Intact Friday! Today we have a 1960 Ford Thunderbird Coupe from Danbury Mint. It took three tries to find a perfect one. Happy diecast hunting!

Beautiful. Let's hope it stays healthy. 👍  Sadly, many of these have suffered the dreaded diecast rot. 🙁

Custom Sunday! Here we have a 1962 Ford Thunderbird Custom from Danbury Mint. It is beautiful, undervalued, and a must-have.
