I've seen the Henry J listed in 1/25 on eBay; the file definitely needs more work (front of hood and the grille are too flat).

Oh yes! In school we'd be singing "It's about time - it's about space - it's about time to slap you in the face!"

Add to that the two superhero spoofs: Captain Nice and Mr. Terrific.

Market research convinced Ford that the Edsel would be a rousing success.

The guy I sold my '78 Buick LeSabre coupe to on FB Marketplace had good luck; we were liquidating my parents' estate at the time so besides the car he got a bunch of the furniture we didn't want for $100. Nice guy with a wife and young kid so it would be put to good use.

Nice to see the '49 Merc coming back. I wonder why AMT didn't do a Stylized option for that kit back in '63, like many others in the Trophy Series?

Argh was a brand of coarse stench from Wacky Packs.

Jo-Han made some beautiful Caddys, but they were stuck having to fit a standard promo box. Thus we get a short but not narrow '60 Fleetwood:

"Albert in the can" was the subject of many a phone prank.

This frame from the movie looks like the artist's inspiration:

By 1965 we had another white-over-blue '53 Chevy for my mom. A year later we sold it for $90.00 to some guy who later told my dad he drove it from Chicago to Memphis with no problems: And Dad had a slant-6 '61 Dodge Dart Seneca; here I am describing the shape of the grille:

Mom, a deer and our first white-over-blue '53 Chevy on a trip to Colorado in 1956: That fall, Dad traded it in for a brand new '57 Buick Century in Dawn Gray over Carlsbad Black; he didn't get whitewalls but he got factory A/C. Unfortunately the best color shot got double exposed: By 1959 he customized it a bit by removing the grille spear: So when I was born the next year it became the first car I ever rode in.
