Location: Victoria, BC, on Vancouver Island, Canada		My wife and I and 2 youngest sons are away for the weekend about 80 miles from home, at our beach condo near a place called Parksville, BC. Today we took a side-trip to a small tourist place called COOMBS. There's a small store there called "REDD'S DIECASTS". Lo and behold he had this 56 FIreflite Sportsman on the shelf. He also had a black and gold 56 Adventurer hardtop, and needless to say I was torn between the two. The Adventurer had the rear windows up, and as I like the cleaner look of the windows all down I bought this one. I got this for about 25% less than buying from Danbury. The detail as usual from Danbury lately is remarkable. Even the antennae are extendable!

These photos are not mine, I copied them from a web site.

Location: central Illinois		Great way to add to the FL collection when money and space won't allow full size. Great color combo.

This is true! Although my glassed-in model display cabinet is getting very full. I have a bunch of 1950's GM and FOMOCO models along with all my FL and other MoPar models, some of which I built when a teenager, and I'm debating whether to sell some of the GM and FOMOCO stuff on EBay and devote the cabinet to all MoPar.
