Good looking T Bird.
Guys ... keep the conversation about the subject of the topic. We deleted off topic posts...you can discuss those privately.
Profuse, that's a good looking T-bird...assuming it's 1/43? I'm curious to know the manufacturer...
An aerial pic of a rally of 1/43's earlier this summer at Bob's Country Store! Mike, the "Arttista" pizza guy was there standing by '57 Bel Air convertible...love those "Arttista" figures...

Paul it looks like GM rules at Country Bob's. Is that a GM only rally or am i mistaken?
You're right on coach...GM only that night! Sometimes "Bob" opens up the rally to the Ford and Chrysler gang...
While close, but no cigar, Outback Toys has 3 International KB-8 trucks, a tandem flatbed, dump, and stakebed, in 1/50 scale on sale $50-60.

1:43 1955 Ford T-Bird Convertible (Yellow) $6.99 from Diecastdirect.com. I put drivers and lights in all my cars, but needed a couple of convertables so you can see the people better.
Somehow, the senior couple in the Chrysler got into the GM rally earlier this summer at Morrision Door...

Great scotts Batman! I bet the old guy paid the guy in the Chevell behind him to block them in so he could see all the wonderful cars!

Well it is one of those 300s not a Lee Iococca K-car.
I didn't realize First Gear did 1/50s.
John- I thought those Mack trucks were actual vehicles! They look great. JohnA
I can see why they are among your favorites, John! Superb!
Joe "Cool" is taking advantage of the warm temps over the weekend to squeeze in one more day with the top down before the snow flies! The everpresent checker players in front of the general store don't seem interested in the '57. It never fails, Joe takes up two spaces wherever he parks to protect his car from door rash...

Was in CVS for flu shot and shingles vaccine - supposed to hang around for 10 minutes and was rewarded by snagging this 1:43 ‘67 Impala. Works great on my ‘70’s-‘80’s era layout!
I may add some rust at the rear wheel wells later. 1:50 would be better but I’ll start with right era.
