Here they are, the the last two castings still standing for the 1st Annual Swifty's Garage Casting of The Year Award. Wow, that's wordy! Pick your favorite one and cast a vote. Voting will be held open until December 31.

Special thanks to SnowOwl for the pic of the GL AMC Javelin and to 69Stang for the pic of the Minichamps 911. Thanks Leigh and Ward. :wave:

The Porsche looks like a 1/43 scale model and not a 1/64 scale model.

OUTSTANDING detail!

I'm sure there are more votes out there, and the Javelin could use a few of them!

What do ya know? The voting is tied again! Will go ahead and leave the poll up for an extended day or so. I've yet to vote myself really don't want to sway the result one way or another either. 14 votes isn't enough for these two great castings!

Hey, we expected it to be close! I just don't think anyone expected it to still be tied by the end of the week!

I came in a little too late to vote officially. Both castings look great, though I probably would've voted for the Javelin had I been able to tool around the garage more during the month of December to discover this thread. So how did the final vote turn out anyway?

I'm calling a winner . . .. and it's the GL AMC Javelin! :thumbup: In an 8 to 7 squeaker, the Javelin roared to the victory line.

Thanks to all that voted in all the polls as well as the final round. If interest is shown throughout the year, we'll have another set of polls in November for the 2010 candidates.

Cheers. :wave:

It was very close. The good news is, both castings are out there and available. Which only adds to the amount of cool diecast to look for.
