@perrone1 Great collection Tony. I actually have one early rough C1 or C2 that once was in your collection as it has your address label on the box. Have to find it ... I got it very cheap on ebay several years ago.
I also have the 1965 C3 below, you were somehow involved in its development. I think you had the preproduction sample with uncovered power window buttons that were not available yet or something like this. Mine is very early prototype, the paint is very different, the interior is different color, the model and manufacturer are not yet embossed on the chassis. I have to replace the windshield and the mirror (already got a donor car). It came in a batch of parts cars from Jim Inglese collection's leftovers.

Cool Chav! Yep, the prototype DM '65 that was sent for photos and review has both window cranks and power window buttons. DM asked me to not photo that part.
Long Roof Sunday! Today we have a 1961 Ford Country Squire station wagon from FM. This is the only semi-modern wagon I have. Highly recommended!
I only recently got one of these since the price was irresistible. It is very nice model. It would've been even better if the paint had a clear coat, the metallic paint is a bit dull but overall, the fit is great for a model so complex and also made in the pre computer prototyping era.
Prototype Tuesday! Here is the prototype Cadzilla from Hot Wheels. Mattel had big plans - flashing lights, power doors and hood, better engine details, etc. I kept the rear lights off so the brake lights can be seen. Enjoy!
