Motormax 1:18 1955 Bel-Air Sport Coupe
Overall, for the price, this is a nice replica. Cons: the top is plastic, and the steering wheel and column are totally silver. The trunk doesn't open. Finally, it'd look a lot better if they could have a true grille in front. But on the pro side, this looks a lot like Bob Falfa's '55 from American Graffiti, as the picture shows no hood ornament, a custom touch I've always loved. When I got my model, there WAS a hood ornament, but it easily popped off, and I covered the holes with a small piece of hobby tape, which is barely noticeable. The badges are all painted on, but very accurate. I definitely recommend it.
