Poll: Which '56? (9/30/2025)

“Everybody to their taste,” said the old lady as she kissed the cow.

I’m thinking about starting a collection of diecast models of all of the great classic Asian cars from the ‘30’s to the ‘50’s or thereabouts. Any suggestions out there?

Both automobiles are such beautiful Fifties luxury cars ! Each looks great and is unique in its styling. I would be delighted to have either one of them (or both) now or back in 1956.

@kevins Wow...now that's a category I wouldn't be much help with....but I would find it interesting!

@jack-dodds I'm with Jack but would like to see what you come up with.

@bob-jackman I’m pleased to introduce you to ‘Dagmar’, (left) and her namesakes, (bumper titties)

@kevins Being of  my advanced age, I am quite aware of Dagmar and the relationship to mid fifties Cadillacs. My response was in regard to your comment about collecting Asian cars.

@bob-jackman Easy for me to get confused about that, especially when Jack said it would be interesting. Oh well, just thought that mayhaps the youngins on the panel weren’t familiar with them, er I mean her!

@kevins All's good with me my friend.

Love both but for me the true luxury car is the Cadillac.

Gents, thanks for your responses!
