These is the first pilot issue of three models. Which one should I make more - the one with the open luggage compartment or with a non-removable cover?

These really are beautiful, Albert. My problem would be owning only one! Most of these were probably part of a fleet. Tough choice about which one. I ‘d be inclined to go with the one without the cover. Can you tell us more about these models?

Thanks, David! I will make proper pictures and explain the details once I get them in my hands.
I need more opinions, folks!
By the way, right now I only plan them in black. Any other ideas?

I prefer the open version. They would look good in say 3 colors; perhaps black, dark blue and grey?

Hi Albert
Why not a Suburban?

Open luggage compartment.

I’m most intrigued by the open version.

Another vote for the open compartment.

Very cool. I prefer the open version-more detail.

I like the detail on the open cover version. What colors did the original ones come in?
There is only one black and white picture available, and it's hard to tell.

Hi Albert
Why not a Suburban?
Renato, it's too similar to the models made by Vitesse or Whitebox, just with slightly different proportions. I am trying to create something unique.

Thank you, all! it's quite clear the open version is more desirable.

Open top would be great - then we just need some 1/43 luggage and trunks!
