      Last car I owned in the states before leaving was a 1950 TD so of course I love this!

      That is awesome!
      To find one complete is amazing enough but to find one in original primer is unreal.
      For what it's worth the body is actually Diecast not pressed steel and although a lot of collectors called these 1/16, they are much larger, closer to 1/10 scale.

      If you ever want to triple your money, I'm your man,lol
