Hey 1:43 Collectors! Have you voted yet in the Wish List?

We've thus far voted for fifty-four cars, yet have half the cash spent of the 1/24 guys. Also...
Pretty interesting if you go by decade, too...in parentheses are the $700+ per decade

I'm thinking some of these cars need some support...don't only the top three get looked at by the manufacturers (at least as a direct result of this contest)? If that's the case, the current winners are the 1962 Lincoln Continental, the 1933 Cadillac Aerodynamic Coupe, and the 1941 Cadillac Series 63. Although honestly, given that the 1961 Dodge Dart has two different variants up there (Seneca and Phoenix) totaling $550 more than either of the Caddys, it's a shame that might miss out.

I'm thinking the 63 Chevy II Nova needs some love and vote money. LOL.

I admire your dedication, Patty, but I'd much rather have a '65 Impala Sport Coupe in Evening Orchid with a white and black interior!
