New casting? Quick! Take it apart!
|
Quite awhile back, I posted this casting as a question----what did I find at a yard sale? Our all knowing leader, Swifty, posted asap that it was an Eclipse concept. This CotD makes the subject more interesting than ever. If nothing else, castings of odd concepts and then collecting them can be a very interesting sub-hobby in the diecast world. The only place I can think of finding a real Plymouth X2S is in a junkyard in Peoria, AZ., or a small junkyard in Phoenix between one of the airport's runways and a Waffle House. I believe these junkyards belong to David. Edited by ivantt, Nov 17 2010, 04:17 AM.

LOL...cute. In some weird Honda Del Sol way I kinda like it. It's not like I'm about to fall all over myself to try to find one...but if I did I would probably pick it up just for the novelty. |

I recognized this as an Eclipse convertible concept from a young age. The detailed history is most interesting. Early versions of this casting, before licensing was an issue, had a darker, metallic paint and silver Mitsubishi logos tampo printed between the headlights and on the sides by where the b-pillar would be.
