Hello, David, as John said, they're only prototypes and will not have white letters. Best regards.

Fantastic event

I wish I would have been there, specially for knowing many of you in person and, of course, to see so many nice models... and buy something...

Enjoy!!!

BenD, the cars below the wagon are both Motor City. On the left is a 1956

Chrysler New Yorker St. Regis and on the right is the 49/50 Packard. As with most MOC models, both are exceeding nice.

Yes!

It seemed a couple of the roof rack elements were missing. Plus, I like the color of mine better! Still tempting, though.

A Greg Gunn custom

Greg makes these from several re-purposed castings (I think the cabs are from Ertl). I have a couple in my collection. Custom paint and chrome foiling. They're a great way to display a number of cars in one space.

I think the Ford Ranch Wagon is a Ford Genuine Parts item. but I could be wrong. Other colors showing up on Ebay are solid dark blue or red and white.

Second City Motors

The first in a new white metal line from Jeff Lane called Second City Motors. Really great detail!

Was the Buick Wildcat in there someplace? I couldn't tell.

(pics) here's Motorhead's (Genuine Ford Parts) version in red/white

These resin models are well proportioned and finished, but I did paint out the large plated rear fender Galaxie trim which wasn't typically on a Ranch Wagon. These Motorhead models are available from many vendors for under $50.
I notice that the new metal prototype model also adds the heavy rear Galaxie fender trim.
