 Hey guys, PR91 Brett brought this little nugget to my attention; somehow it didn't appear on my phone-based eBay searches because, well, technology. Attachment:

So, how awesome is that? 1/64 scale is, unfortunately, very small (around same size as a Matchbox/Hot Wheels car; perhaps a bit smaller) but the fact that someone has actually done a model of a PR95-era Bellett GT is very cool; ie this is the first model I've seen with the 'mask' front and the Lego-style tail lights.

The fact that it's the same as my GTR (which has the chassis # PR91...just saying) is a total bonus. I have bought two! Attachment:

There are several different sellers with them, but THIS guy (the guy I just bought two from) is offering free postage to Australia. http://www.ebay.com/itm/MAR-2014-new-LV ... 1426332530Appears to be a March 2014 release; wondered why I hadn't seen them before! I'm excited! Cheers, Dave _________________My latest automotive articles and original content shared here:https://www.facebook.com/garageofawesomeStreet Machine! Unique Cars! Awesome!

I've put the aerial on the GTR in the cabinet, but not on the one that's Blu-tacked to my monitor at work! Kept the aerial in the box in my drawer; it was pretty flimsy.
Cheers,
Dave

Tomica do/did a nice version of the Isuzu Hillman Minx in the same scale. They come up from time to time on evilbay at prices between "Bargain!" and "You are joking".I paid about $20 plus postage for mine and despite being small it is nicely detailed, even down to the two tone upholstery inside. This would be a late model (1963/4) Super Deluxe

I managed to get a teardrop deluxe sedan and the hex tailaight police car. They do go well with the Hot Wheels adult line (long ago obsolete) of the black box/100%
