Those are two outstanding trucks. I think I have....

something very similar, but packed up. I am going to find the carton that has these and get them out. You have raised my enthusiasm. Unfortunately, all of my Italian cars are not on display, except for the two Alfa Romeo trucks I photographed a while back. Not enough room.

Monaco Grand Prix, 1934 pic is that a RIO? They are more $$$ now but they have upped their game (more details, same old casting, I think).

Pretty neat, finding a 1/43 these days with any opening features is a challenge.

In the past week I've picked up a 1/43 AutoArt 1955 Jaguar D-type driven Hawthoren & Bueb at the 1955 24 Hrs. of LeMans and that has opening features, also a 1/43 HPI Jaguar XJR-9 with opening engine cover. I've got a lot of 1/43 race cars and the ones with opening features are special to me.

The old HPI Le Mans racers are sorely missed. Engine detail was fantastic.

Auto Art's Miura and McLaren F1 are amazing as well.
