@monteverde802 Wow!    I don't think I've ever seen a coupe before.     

I mentioned a while back; my high school GF's father was restoring a 1937 Graham sedan.   When the rolling chassis was drivable - he did just that.    We watched as he piloted his "frame w/wheels"  around the neighborhood.  

It was kind of a Green Arches moment,  if you know what I mean.    😏 😏 

 

Wasn’t “Green Arches” the first failed Mc Donalds in Ireland ?  🤣

@monteverde802 many many years have I waited for this 1/24 to be made by Automodello.

24G010 7

I do however have a nice red 1/43 convertible. The front end has to be the ultimate in Art Deco styling

@geoff-jowett Although the nose clip is stock Graham, the body is a one-off custom built by Saoutchik. Graham never built a convertible on the Model 96 or 97 "Sharknose" chassis.
