What was the first Franklin Mint 1:24 scale car you ever owned?
I'm sure this topic has come up before, I'm just curious what your first FM car was. My first one was:
Franklin Mint 1:24 1966 Shelby Cobra 427 S/C Diecast Model

My first and only: 1961 Ford Country Squire Station Wagon. I wanted the yellow/black '55 Pontiac too, but it was sold out by the time I went to the local Franklin Mint store to buy it. Same with the '57 Bonneville. I was sorry to see that store close.
