    Diecast Model

    Does anyone know where I can get my hands on a good, 1:18 diecast model of the 289 USRRC FIA Cobra?

    Thanks

    Ray, Thank you so much for the link. I see the 427 SC there but not the 289 FIA. Am I missing something?

    Probably not. They rotate their stock regularly and if i'm looking for something special, I give them a call.
