@mg-harv, yes, he infamously posted pictures of Minimarque's '49?, '50? Cadillac all marked up with how terrible a model it was.ย 

Whatever Bruce said about the MM43 "Cadillac," it was too kind.ย  It is a pathetic excuse for a model.ย  Almost as bad as Brooklin's 1960 Cadillac.

@d-m-holcombe I love the B&G/RMC models, and there are other super-detail models from former Soviet blocย  countries that are also phenomenal.

BTW, the Chrysler Imperial Roadster is part of B&G's Historic Line. Mikhail was responsible for bringing this incredible line of models to life and giving us the opportunity to add them to our collections.ย

What does a Duesenberg have to do with stylish German cars?

Yeh,howโ€™s about a Horsch Roadster!

@bob-jackmanย  There was an article on architecture in the Chicago Tribune a few years ago where a reporterette went into an old auto showroom on Michigan Ave. referring to it as the original Chicago dealership of the Famous German Duesenberg. The comments were not kind.ย

@stewil I just picked up the Stylish โ€˜33 Speedster (red) but realized the hood ornament is missing. Can you snap a closeup of yours? Is it a photo etched or cast piece?
