I really enjoyed collecting this set. Was lucky to find the 2 ten packs for the GTO and Flairside.

That display is sweet!
I have been slowly collecting this series over the years, just when I find them cheap online. I think I have about 10 now.
I wish they'd do another series like this, it was a fun one.

This was a fun set to collect. The 57 Chevy Mail in model was a tough piece but I was able to get one. I just traded for a spare set which included the 57 but as it was a spare, I sold it at the Gathering to a collector who had been searching for years. Still have the spare set of all but the 57 if anyone needs a set.

A 57 Chevy recently found by a collector friend. With markings on roof and different wheels. Should be a prepro from factory.

Can you please post pics of the sides and base? Interesting model. Looks darker as well.
