These two models were on my wish list for a couple of years. I seemed to have other priorities when they were issued, and they seemed to disappear rather quick. When I went looking a couple of years later, they had virtually disappeared and for those few available, very pricey.
Then in late 2022, Buz offered one of the Super Dart 400's in his "Fabulous Model Car Friday" specials. I was able to secure the one he offered and for a great price too. Now, determined to add the convertible I started looking more intently and two months later, I was lucky to find one and again, at a great price. I am very pleased to have them both. Even more so since I've seen both of these concepts in 1:1 form several years ago, and I just love to own models of actual cars I've seen.

John, I have the 1957 Chrysler Ghia Dart Diablo and another Ghia concept car the 1954 DeSoto Adventurer II. The Dual Ghia Super Dart 400 Hardtop is one I've got to find. Thanks for posting these interesting concepts.

When I first saw (in the 1970's ) that '58 Dart hardtop concept as a kid, I was blown away! Every car picture I drew looked similar to it; I was obsessed with that design.

I don't collect concept models but find them very interesting. These two are awesome!

Another Chrysler Ghia, a 1954 that made its way to Argentina sometime in its life and my friend brought home to the states and restored about 15 years ago. Kess made a model of it unbeknown to my friend when they saw it at Pebble Beach.

I have several concept models from Matrix and like every single one of them. These two were on my radar also but I never pulled the trigger.
