Stunning New Replica of Classic Ford Cabriolet
Filed in archive Model Cars by Philip Powell on April 20, 2007

My brother Alan might, I think, covet this "1:24 scale model from the Danbury Mint". He once owned a 1936 Ford Cabriolet that was, I believe, his first car and if memory serves me, would have been purchased in the mid-50's. We never thought of such cars as classics then; they were just nice old cars that could be bought for the proverbial song. The model is loaded with a host of working parts and is limited to a run of 5000, individually numbered on a special golden plaque on the undercarriage. danbury mint
assures us that this classic Cabriolet is painted in the authentic factory color of Bambalino Blue. To be honest, I can't recall the color of Alan's car; I wonder, can he? 7-1/2" in length, the model sells for $140, which is probably what my brother paid for his full-size Ford.Permalink: Stunning New Replica of Classic Ford Cabriolet
