One of the thoughts behind my collection was/is, in addition to cars I thought cool or appealing to me, to include different model makers and counties of origin.  Seeing the recent Goldvargs and having read an article on MAR online (here) I found this 2005 interview with “Buby” (here).  So here is my Buby and while taking the pictures noticed it was signed “made by Rosa”.

I always thought the builder's sticker on the base was a nice touch.  Here a group of these with one I converted into a four door sedan.

Frank, I just read the "Buby" interview, and it's really special.  I have several of the Collector's Classics and have often wished the series had continued.  Thanks for your good pictures too.  Well done! Hi David H

That's a superb looking '54 Mercury convertible. Really nice in that white color scheme and Rosa certainly did a fantastic job on this one !
