@100ford2003 Unfortunately, nobody did an accurate replica of the Skylark.

I have to admit that I never knew about Stamp Models. Had to Google it to investigate. Highly sophisticated models and unfortunately beyond my pocketbook. Alas!

@chris 😂🤣😂🤣

Oh hell yes… that Skylark is a 10+ while that Cadillac just barely rates a 2 1/2  🤣 

I gotta get to storage, I hope I saved my Motormax Buick 💕 You noticed how the guard dogs are keeping a watchful eye on the Skylark whereas they don’t give a rats-ass bout that pitiful Caddy…🤣

@100ford2003 I totally agree with you Steve. I was thirteen when the 1953 GM Motorama cars were introduced and while I liked them all, the Skylark was by far my favorite. I also agree with Richard about there not being an accurate model of it. With all of the beautiful models being put out by GLM/Stamp, I can't imagine why they haven't done one of the Skylark.

@bob-jackman I agree with you. It is surprising an accurate 1953 Skylark is not made today.
