What about the Danbury and Franklin mint's excellent versions of the 57 300C ?

Hi All, I thought I'd throw in my two cents worth. While its nice to see that some model company's are making 58 Plymouth Street Rod models and such, the reason why no one else has made any STOCK Forward Look Car Models or Christine Models is due to JoHan Models having a very strict arrangement with Chrysler Corp. pertaining to copyrights and so on. They have had a lock on all MoPar Models of our vintage for a long time and wouldn't release any patents on them. (At least this is what information I gathered from researching) Perhaps there finally easing up there restrictions, and maybe we'll be seeing some more cars from other manufacturers in the future. We can only hope. Regards, B.J. Pultanovich 1958 Plymouth Belvedere 2 dr Ht. bjpjr@xxxxxxxxx
