I've owned those Dodge models when I was in high school, and the price was proportionately lower then, than they are now. And I'm fairly sure that a hobby shop now would have them a bit cheaper than that.
Really?!? I just assumed they were cheap because they were at “Ollie’s” a bargain warehouse surplus whatever type store. Oh wait, the Lincoln was at “hobby lobby” don’t ask...
It depends on how much the dollar has devalued, since then. Even if the model was still more expensive, after doing the math, depending on where the newer versions are made (more than likely not in the U.S.), you could figure out which of the two are bringing higher profits for the company
Way too small. The ashtray, maybe. Hey! When you said "Cheap Models", why did you disillusion us? These are cheap models:
They're sold in stores, here and there, but I suspect it's brand licensing, you know, like a Bell and Howell radio...radio? Really?
And they were topless cabs, IIRC. A dear departed friend also grew up in L.A. in the Fifties, and that was what she remembered.
