I am still moving through my photo library - boy, I have a lot of photos just sitting there and never posted before.  I am usually way to picky when it comes to my photos, so when taken, I do a quick look through. I usually split them into two main groups, the ones I am pleased with and the ones that I'm not. My intention was to eventually go over all of them, but...

Anyway, now I am going through a few from time to time. Here's a couple today from that group that I've had a chance to go over.

Issued by Conquest Models via Route 66 Models, it was released in 2020. When issued this model was available several colors, hardtops and convertibles (open & closed) This model is in Wedgewood Mist.

The 2nd model today is from Brooklin, issued in 2010. The model is finished in Tasco Turquoise & Ermine White. An added bonus to this model is it is from the Dick Browne Collection purchased from an eBay auction.

The 3rd one for today is a model I've had for several years, I picked it in 2013 when I was 1st getting acquainted with 1:43 scale models. Issued by IXO/Altaya - The Opel Collection, I still see these from time to time on eBay.

All three are super cool models. 'Automotive-wise', I really love the Starfire best!

Great pics!

Have the Impala in that color and the Starfire Hardtop in blue and red/white and the convertible top up in black. We owned a blue 1/ Starfire 1/1 hardtop but ours had a white top. Starfire for sure.
