Nice collection. Who made the 1959 Olds?

That yellow Vista Cruiser wagon is gorgeous and shows good taste!  LOL.

Those are beautiful in every scale ! What superb-looking Oldsmobiles ... all of them.

That is a Neo Ed.....they also made a twin 1959 Pontiac hardtop....they look great next to one another!

Love the pictures and glad to say I have them all. As for George Schire considering 1/43 scale models, even though they are the most collected scale world wide, George says they are too small for him. IMO he doesn't know what he is missing but that's his choice.

They may well be "the most collected scale world wide", but that doesn't make me want to be on the bandwagon.  I'm guessing Hot Dogs are the most eaten meal at major league baseball games, but that doesn't make me want to eat one.  I think in photos the 1:43 scale cars look awesome, but anytime I've held a 1:43 in my hand, it comes down to, they are too small.  I guess I'm a dinosaur stuck in a 1:24 scale world that no longer exists.  I don't like it, but that is the way it is.  I'll enjoy the 1:43's in photos.

In photos they are awesome.  But they will always be too small to interest me.

Thank you for thinking of me Ben, it is much appreciated.  As great as the photos are, I can not be tempted.  I've held many 1:43 in my hands and they're just too small.

Thank you for thinking of me Ben

My pleasure George.....I am glad you liked the pics.

And a few more 1959 Pontiacs.   GFCC items or modification of them.  Maybe some '59 Oldsmobiles tomorrow when the sun comes up.

Just a few more Oldses.

Fantastic selection!
