I had the red and green, but I can't resist a blue Alfa!  Solido Giulia Quadrifoglio in Misano Blue...

Such a good-looking car, 1:1 and 1:43, that never quite really caught on in the U.S.

Now that I see this, I'm going to see if I can pick up a red one at a good price. Thanks, Karl!

@moe-parr The Monza Red is such a great color - shiny-chromey to the max for a 1/43 diecast!

....I think many collectors are guilty of this "phenomenon."  For whatever reason, many of us have several examples of the same replica....in some cases, exactly the same the replica.  😮 😮    I know I'm guilty!  🙄 🙄

@chris And if you’re David Knight, several of the exact same model (me, too, if I’m being honest).

Yup, who ever saw a dairy farm with just one DIVCO milk truck, or, for that matter just one cow?

I was raised on a farm and worked at many as a kid....that's the cleanest lot of dairy cattle in the  cleanest milking barn I've ever seen.  Must be a Cadbury's operation.

I've seen several Divco vans redone with updated interiors, front clips/chassis and small block v-8 engines; they look really cool.

I like this example better than mine as the headlights are left stock.  The '55-'56 Chevy dash is very cool!
