I just LOVE that Phillips Renault. Never seen one before. The Atlas is nice but I prefer the originals.

1/43 is the majority of my collection, and one of my all time favourites are those Hong Kong Dinkys (or last of the Spot Ons as some call them). Your Corvair is in beautiful condition. I have them all but not all the variations (missing the Impalla with yellow roof) and none of mine are mint, but as affordable models pop up I hope to eventually end up with mint versions. Just thought I would share my models, and not to steal your thread :)

I assume you must "know" the Rollerman who provided the awesome information in that thread. ;)

Just for note, on that forum, I am "Tick" :D

Cheers !!!!

Hey Shane

Believe it or not your posting of the photo above on another forum prompted me to start trying to acquire these models. As you point out they are tricky to find in good condition at sensible prices.

Cheers

Thank you Shane, yes I do know "Rollerman", sometimes think he is too big for his boots, but he is harmless enough and he does have a few bits of interesting information at times... :lol:

Regards, Rollerman...sorry, I meant to type GHOSTHUNTER.

I found the Rambler to be the hardest to find (here in Canada anyways) at a reasonable price including postage and the Corvair the hardest to find in decent shape
