L ovely job, Denis, as usual. I have the red & white 1956 Pontiac released by Neo a few years ago, but they only made the Convertible. Do you
know weither any one other than Brooklin and Neo made a 1956
Pontiac?

Here's one of the Brooklin '56's repainted / detailed by John White. It is among my favorites:

Brian, beautiful Pontiac! And what scale is the Pan Am plane?

It looks great with your cars.

Thanks, David. The Douglas DC-8 "Jet Clipper Queen of the Pacific" is 1/50-scale.(PIC)

And here it is again, joined by a 1/50-scale Boeing 707. This photo helps illustrate the size of the models relative to the 1/43-scale cars.
