These are the diecast 2nd Gen Thunderbirds I have. Abmittedly, the old Corgi '58s are a tad less than 1:43.
French Dinky made this 1960 convertible, with suspension and a crude form of steering.
Franklin Mint's '58 convertible has their usual bells and whistles, with halfway decent shutlines compared to some of their other models.

Nice post, Harv. The Franklin Mint is a beauty!

I agree with David.

I know it's resin (from NEO) but I hope it's OK to contribute this to the thread

The Square Birds have always been interesting. I have a few both in resin and white metal.
