Hi,
Sorry I forgot to put a subject line in my VV post...I guess I was excited about spreading the word about Creative Miniature Associates' upcoming 1/43 scale Fitch Phoenix model. There's never been a model of the Phoenix made before, and the first 150 will be signed by John Fitch and come with a display case. There may not be more than 150 made, though. CMA is a high end, exacting model making company which usually limits their runs to only 50 cars.
Check out their website www.cmamodels.com I think you'll enjoy seeing the high level of detail and accuracy they're known for. Ordering information for the Phoenix is in the thread below.
If there's enough interest in the Phoenix model, Marshall might be impressed with the Corvair market. Wouldn't a model of the Pininfarina Corvair Coupe be incredible?
For now, we're very lucky that he's going to do the Phoenix. I hope we can show him that Corvair model collectors are serious enough to support his efforts!
