| 'The Forward Look' ....... in miniature -- pg 11 |
|
| Here are some new additions put up as of March 2002, which were added to the site after the main Forward Look section was completed. They aren't in any particular size order, so I'll mention what scale they are in with each description. |
 |
| This great pair of 1/18th scale '58 Plymouths is part of Ertl's American Muscle series. The beige Fury is authentic down to the gold grille and trim and the two 4-barrel carburetors. The Belvedere should look familiar -- it's a scaled-down version of everyone's favorite spooky car, Christine! It's also available in several other color combinations. |
 |
| Here's the black version of Maisto's 1/18th '56 Chrysler 300B, previously illustrated in Cloud White. Maisto also released the car in red; however, shade of red is incorrect. This model is really oustanding in black. |
| The 1/18th scale '57 Chrysler 300C in Ertl's Precision series is one of the most finely detailed models I've ever seen in this scale. With the right background, you'd think it was a real car, as no detail has been omitted. |

| This is an original JoHan 1/25th scale 1960 DeSoto Adventurer kit that was built to replicate a car we actually owned. I purchased this model as a 'junker' and actually had it completely restored. These original kits are extremely difficult to find these days. |
 |
| A few years ago, XEL reissued the '56 1/25th scale DeSoto promotionals unpainted and unassembled. This was a perfect opportunity to paint them in authentic colors. I had my good friend Rick Hanmore finish my model in Irridescent Plum and Shell Pink. Rick really did an outstanding job. |
 |
| Yet another black '57 Chrysler 300C, this one in 1/25th scale from AMT in their Masterpiece series. This series is made up of fully assembled and painted kits. They were beautifully done and very reasonably priced. However, this series has been discontinued. |
 |
| This rather crude 1/25th scale '55 Chrysler New Yorker Sedan is a reproduction of an original pot metal promotional model. This particular piece is one of a limited edition of 100 which were produced as souvenirs of the All-Chrysler Nationals at Carlilse in July 2001. |
 |
| Western has done a beautiful job reworking their 1/43rd scale '59 DeSoto Adventurers into Fireflites. All the trim has been changed and the interiors modified to replicate the simpler Fireflites. |
