More Racers Friday! Let's take a look at DM’s 1965 Canyon Racer today. DM’s modified Corvette line was exceptional. The parts count is high, and fit-and-finish is excellent. These cars still look sophisticated even by today’s standards.

Bonus Friday – Repair! I just realized that the August 8, 2022 FAW CA71 was a rerun (previously posted on August 30, 2021.) To make it up, I will show a minor repair I did on an Automodello 1966 Ford Galaxie. The trim on the right front fender was damaged, and the replacement decal showed up in my mailbox after a quick chat with Jim at Automodello. Thanks, Jim!!!

You can see the damage below. I removed the old decal and cleaned the area.

Applied the new decal. Very happy with the result Smile

@bob-jackman I love you "have it, love it" line. You should trademark it 😀

Sample Sunday! Here we have an early developmental sample of FM’s Mercedes Benz W196 R. The most apparent difference is the exterior color - the production version is a couple of shades lighter. The engine compartment and the interior color scheme are also a little different. In the last photo, the sample is on the left, the production version is on the right. Enjoy!

Numero Uno Monday! Today we have a Callaway C12 Corvette from FM. This is the number one car of the signature edition. It’s probably just me, but I usually don’t like signatures on model cars 😆 

Word of caution: if someone presents you with a #1 FM limited edition car, make sure it comes with the green factory tag + #1 COA + #1 serial number sticker on the outer white box. Happy diecast hunting!
