The Mustang II is a Mustang too!

![]() Today's car of the day is Majorette's 1975 Excalibur Series III. ![]()
![]() For more information and pictures of the real car please visit: Cadillac Eldorado & ![]() An interesting choice from Majorette, and one has to wonder why they chose the neo-classic as opposed to just replicating the original Mercedes-Benz that would likely be better known in the home market of France. However, Majorette was trying to make inroads into the US market at the time so that could possibly explain some of the odd choices they made during the time period. ![]()

New casting? Quick! Take it apart!

A very interesting car in life, and a very nice casting by Majorette. But I just can't see it being successful as a diecast. You have to give "Special Mention" to Majorette for the surprising effort. |

Even if it was made at the time when Majorette was trying to enter the U.S market, it's still a strange choice considering the bulk of what they produced was every day cars. |
