Attention Forward Lookers and all model car collectors! The 1/18 scale '58
Fury from Ertl is here! I picked mine up this morning at my local hobby
store. The model is very nicely done, with two exceptions: The fender skirts
should have been left off and, most important of all, the color is wrong --
should be Buckskin Beige, not ivory. Maybe they'll correct it at some
time.The '58 Belevedere should be out in a couple of weeks in Met.
Turquoise.
Happy collecting,
Ross Klein
