Shooting-Brake Wednesday! Here we have a 1962 Ferrari 250 GT SWB Breadvan from MG Model. This one is a factory-built piece. It was also available in the KIT form. This is a curbside model with many photo-teched parts. In case you didn’t know, the Breadvan was based on a 1961 250 GT Berlinetta SWB. Enjoy!

More so than a breadvan, 'Shooting Brake' cars and, especially, this Ferrari, remind me of a pizza delivery vehicle!  Laughing Out Loud

V6 Friday! Here we have a Plymouth Prowler from Danbury Mint (DM). Regardless of how one feels about Chrysler’s product choice, I’m glad that DM made the model. It actually shows very well in a sea of vintage Mustang, Corvette, and Camaro models. Can I get a have-it and love-it? Enjoy!

Yep I love it too. I rotate my models from their showcase spots to what I call decorator items places throughout the house, and did this the other day with the Prowler. Has to be one of the most unusual U.S car designs of recent times.

@geoff-jowett Excellent choice! On a separate note, Chevrolet SSR & HHR, Chrysler PT Cruiser, Pontiac Azteck, and GMC Envoy XUV will probably call you and ask for their Most Unusual title back 🤣 🤣 🤣

Minimum Saturday! Today we have a 1936 Le Corbusier Minimum from ABC-Brianza. This creature was designed by Charles-Edouard Jeanneret, aka Le Corbusier. The design remained on paper until Giorgetto Giugiaro, founder of Italdesign, created a 1:1 scale studio model in 1987. So what we have here is a model of a model 😊 Mine is the photo piece. You can order the Le Corbusier Minimum as a kit or as a built model from ABC. This is a resin curbside model, and the tires do not roll. The dash and paddles are photo-etched, and the door handles and headlight bezel are white metal. Enjoy!
