Automobiles/ Trucks 1/43-1/50 scale let’s see them

Thanks for the background on the 1949 Mercury, Ted.  At first I wondered whether it was a Caddy.  And, what a great vision of repurposing a box for the Diner sign .

TRRR

Nice job, also - Lee.

Curt - that '67 pre-Z looks great - pics of mine below.

Lots of nice cars, QG.

Hey Richie, for no more than they cost they do a nice job on the paint. I have two others of the same car, just different colors. CurtYellow and gold.

That's a very good looking diner scene, Quarter Guager.  Love the details you've included.

Hey Curt'.. I really like that two tone 55 Chevy'.... Haven't seen a red/white in 1/43 scale'...

Hey Ted, I think I got the ‘55 from Diecast Models Wholesale a few years ago. I haven’t seen any since. Chevrolet had some neat two tone colors back then on the ‘55, ‘56, and ‘57 Bel Air models. Curt

Ted, outstanding scene composition. Very cool how you scratch built the sign. You have some very sweet autos hu in your stable. By the way, nice touch including the truck.

The weather is finally clear'. So I thought we should go get a bite to eat at Hammie's Diner.  There is always a great selection of cars in the lot and the best hamburgers in town....🍔🥤😊

Ted, great scene...nice cars and figures!  Makes we want to have a couple of "dogs" hold the relish

The '54, '55 soft yellow Merc with the "optional" green tinted roof looks familiar...Collectors Classics maybe??

Some '55 Chevy two-tones in 1/43...there's a red / white version somewhere on the layout...lol

Sharing a couple of my finds over the last month. First, can someone tell me how to put the attachments on this First Response Replicas Police Package Chevy Tahoe?? No directions, do I just glue on as I see fit?

Morning Paul, I sure love this scene at the BEECROFT CHEVROLET! some great looking 55's! But I still love the vett! You can't go wrong with a black and silver convertible corvette.

Oh one more thing Paul, and not to nit pick. but sure hope the HOT brunette on the roof gets to come down for breaks, lunch and get to go on her dates at night! That red dress is really working for her! LOL

Gotta love those mid-'60's black striped muscle cars and that Yenko looks great.

Hey Richie, you and I seem to like the same cars.

Remember the movie Diggstown, when Bruce Dern takes his spoiled brat son to the basement of the gym and gives him the red and white Corvette? Even though I don’t have a gym, the movie inspired this scene at my dealership.
