Altaya does a 1938 Buick Roadmaster sedan in military livery but it has to come from a French vendor who has this military partworks series that includes a 1941 Navy Chevrolet and a 1941 Desoto, all diecast items but quite accurate in scale and details. Acquired the Buick and resprayed it in civilian dark metallic blue, period Buick color. Side mounts were strangely canvas covered so modified them into proper stock steel covered ones. Here is the Army version and the respray version.
And the full line in the dealership. Victory resin Special coupe, Victory Special Sedan, Brooklin convertible coupe and Brooklin Special convertible sedan.

Very nice, John. That dealership building is really cool.

I have several Altaya models and really like them. Yours seem to be a whole different level. The dealership is FANTASTIC!
