diecast 1:18 model 1950 Olds
 

(Not sure if this belongs in art or in the lounge).

Haven't been able to work on the real thing, so I found a model to help me dream -- 1:18 scale diecast model of a 1950 Olds. It's as close to my '49 as I've been able to find. A bit pricey, but it's very detailed. Working hood, doors, suspension, trunk, seatbacks, seat, steering, driveshaft. Major visual differences from my '49: one-piece windshield, different hood ornament. Now I just need to figure out how to cast a copy in epoxy or something so I can experiment.

Hi Grouch,

Good to see you. Haven't seen you around in a while. I know others, like myself, have been wondering where you'd been.

Sharp looking model. I like those old Olds :).
