Man, that is one beautiful model. Insane detail, the AC stuff looks absolutely proper. I'm not into 1/24 scale, I got into 1/43 about 20 years ago,and built a modest collection of that scale. A friend bought and gifted to me the inexpensive 1:18 scale Carrebbeans that he bought at Menards--a Home Depot kind of store. Here are pictures of my collection, as it hangs in my basement today. There are close-up shots of my Packards,pay special attention to the Franklin mint '55 Carribbean, which looks like it was in a bad accident. That is just the age deformation of the plastic chassis.
