A question about Durham Classics in Canada...
did I miss something - are they still in business?
I tried to contact Nicholas about a planned order but had no response so far.
Many thanks!

Ralf, I have also been wondering, and I just found this note as part of an eBay description:
"1/43 scale Durham Classics
"#DC-11C 1941 Chevrolet Utility Pick Up
Finished in black with blue steamer trunk in back.
"Limited to 250 World Wide.
"**Please note Durham Classics is no longer producing these fine car art pieces. Hollywood's Garage is predicting price increases and wish the Stewart's (Julian & Margaret) happy retirement."
So it seems that Durham Classics is no longer in production. I have several of their models and like them. I think I had better start hunting for more!

Durham Classics web site is still alive and they have items for sale on the bay.

There website is quite good but I have never had any luck in the past contacting them via email. Most recent addition to their range seems to be a 1954 Ford Ranch Wagon in multiple two tone colors.
