A very attractive model!  I always have liked the look of the '65-'65 Falcons; especially in 2drht. form.

What a beauty Hollis. Love the wheel and tire swap. Man, I'm glad I got one before they disappeared. 😊💯

Straight, clean and true. The 'mags' and thin whites look GREAT!

Bob its a Salvat/Edicola et al model. I think Geno and Hollis may have the only 2 in existence! Well not really 🤢 but they have just disappeared from sale. I had one on order from Jumajo but instead received a refund. Around the same time as the Falcon appeared so did an early 70s Dodge Monaco (my memory maybe a bit off here) but anyway that has disappeared too. Wish we could find out more about the manufacturer. I've never seen anything online about them. Other popular U.S cars like the 56 4 door Chev Bel Air the Ford Maverick seem plentiful and have been around for ages.

Geoff, I remember something like a Monaco that disappeared.  There also was a Jeep soft top disappeared before I ordered one.  These cars are labeled as being Mexican models  Some of them, for instance the 1975 Duster in Mexico is sold as Dodge Valient Super Bee.
