JUST IN! These arrived today and I couldn't resist getting some quick shots of these beauties.
1975 Chrysler Cordoba Coupe in Frosty Green Metallic, Silver Cloud Metallic, Spanish Gold Metallic & Starlight Blue Metallic - all LE of 75, all #01s (Tom was a great guy and send me #01 for all four of them-I have one more coming that I ordered after this initial order)

Wow, these little gems look great! I would love to have one of these in 1:24 scale. You must have some pull with GLM to get all #01's.

Hi John,
Those all look great. The pics are so close to appearing to be of 1:1's.
Thnx for sharing your pics and ENJOY those Chrysler's. I remember them so well at my age. They were so perfectly, IMO, matched against Monte Carlos and Grand Prixs.

John - It occurs to me that maybe I should wait for you to post photos before I buy. I am awaiting delivery of the gold and blue but, based on your photos, the two-tone green strikes me as the best color combo among this group. Oh well, somehow I will get by as I am not buying 3 (at least, I don't think I am).

They all look great, John. At first I thought I'd order the blue one as that's my favorite color for a car, but went with the Spanish Gold - it seems to me most in keeping with the overall "vibe" of the Chrysler Cordoba.

@jcarnutz Thanks for the clarification John. 1:43 scale is all new to me, but I'm liking what I see!

@pete-rovero Pete - Tom does limited runs with GLM, so they are available from him and 2 colleagues only. His previous run is documented here:
