Anyone know of a good place to get 1:18 die cast model of a 65 or 66? Besides ebay.

Sorry, I'm looking for 1/24, not 1/18. Thanks.

The Best made ones are at Danbury or Franklin Mint.

You can also try a Canadian equivalent

Thanks guys, I may check out the latter sites in the future, right now I just want one to set on my desk at work, where nothing is sacred.

The pricey ones are nice they paint the engine tranny everything the color the real car had.Most even have spark plug wires.I have a danbury mint 55 belair it has a real wood base the seats in it are padded even a spare tire you can take out.But it was almost 300 when i bought it but its real close to the real car.

I know you said you want a 1:24 Scale but this is a nice site http://www.supercar1.com/ for 1:18. I have several cars from them and they are very detailed and some of their cars (all the ones I have) are limited numbers.

I agree though Danbury or Franklin Mint are the best at the 1:24 scale size but they'll also cost a mint.

I just picked up a Franklin Mint 67 GTA Mustang Convertible (Freight included) On E-Pray for $60.00

The car is so well done it gets a glass display case.
