Jay Leno has got a replica that he purchased from Switzerland and then worked up on by his team.

And by the way none of the original ones survive. Replica do exist tough.

@anu007
I loved your Citroen, Jag Mark2 and that gorgeous evocative 1955 Lancia. What a lucky man you are to collect and own some of my favourites from the 1950’s...

@jeroen
I was lucky to visit the Alfa Romeo Museum outside of Milano in June this year. What a gorgeous set of wheels they have there on display, especially the Giulietta 124 Spider and the Duetto andthe super gorgeous GTA. I only bought a 1:43 model of the Alfa Romeo Giulietta that I had rented for my holiday there, just as a keepsake...but I sure enjoyed seeing all those lovely cars! On the same trip I was able to visit the Museo Enzo Ferrari in Modena as well as the newer Ferrari Museum in Maranello - again, those Ferrari’s of the 1950’s held me in thrall. Especially the SWB Berlinetta and the 250 Lusso. Automobile Heaven.

Re: The Scale Model Thread

Since all my scale models are in Bangalore and I now live in Mumbai, I was planning to buy one.

All the 1:18s I buy always end up in Bangalore. So this time, I decided to buy a smaller model. I fell in love with the white 720S when I first saw the car in Geneva at its launch. So when I saw a 1:36 Kinsmart model of the same car, I bought it. No second thoughts.

If you want more pics of any particular car, please do ask. I would have done a small photoshoot for almost all the cars. If not, I can get more the next time I go home.

Shocking! I just saw your post. Hope they have responded. Mine came beautifully assembled, and arrived in less than a week. In fact, before I saw your post, I was going to order another tractor from the same site, but now I will hold on...

Re: The Scale Model Thread

I was looking for a scale model of MS Brezza. Finally, I got a pull-back plastic toy from Amazon.

Centy Toys has amazing pull back plastic scale models. Look for Centy Toys whenever you buy online. You will see lots of models.
