1961: The Original Holy Trinity of Cars

Long before the P1s, La Ferraris and 918s there are some magnificent cars that I wanted to assemble in diecast

1. CMC 1961 Ferrari 250 GT California SWB
2. Autoart 1961 Jaguar E Type Series I
3. ??? 1961 Porsche 718 RS 61 Spyder


Unfortunately there isnt a 1/18 718 spyder but only 550As. Here are the 1:1 Images to show what I'm talking about..

The closet you can get is the upcoming Cult Scale 1958 Porsche 918 RSK Monoposte.

Thanks.. Taking note of it...
I was also eyeing the Schuco VW Transporter that couples with Silver 550 spyder that is not available separately..
