No big story just a Vitesse 1958 Buick Special. I was born in 58 but I'm partial to most any vintage car.
I love Vitesse models loads of detail at reasonable price.

Wonderful selection, Dave. They make excellent models at a reasonable price, as you say. I have some as well.

Vehicles on my layout are a mix of 1:43,1:48,and 1:50. Is this thread strictly for 1:43?

This car here is a diecast Corgi car of a 1970 Mustang boss 302. My first new car at age 24. Cost---$3250.00 Dave Looks like a great model. I've not seen that one before.

I don't even remember who the manufacturer is of this car, nor was it expensive, but it's full of memories when I see it on the layout, so it's priceless. But its a 56 Ford Customliner just exactly what dad bought in late 55. That was also the year Ford announced "A 56 for 56.00 a month". Its seen at the Sinclair Station were dad filled up every Saturday morning and then him and me would stop at the Hardware stores for supplies.

Walt,Love those '56 Fords, saw plenty of them when I was young. Two tone paint, what's not to like. Why don't the auto makers do that now?

Phil, if you ever get tired of that pickup truck, CT Balsam is always looking for them to add to his fleet of red delivery trucks.
Here are some of his delivery trucks.

This car is one of my favorites. I included it in my layout as a reminder of the days when the Circus would come to town.
