This is a pic by Dale Klee. I wrote him to get permission to use this fro my next dio, as he copyrighted the pic. I will be doing this in HO scale. I may not be ale to get all of the cars shown, but should be able to do most of them.

Merc I don't know about HO scale, but that would make a killer 1/25 scale dio. That's a beautiful picture to start with.

That should look really cool. The only car that I haven't seen in HO is the '34. The '40 coupe and the Merc are available. I forget the name of the company. All the parts are molded in clear.

I just remembered the company that makes the '40 Ford and '49 or '50 Merc is Williams.

I don't have room for anything this big anymore, that is why I downsized to 1/87. Dave I have the 49 Merc in the clear body. I'll just have to locate the 40 now. I have the buildings that might be usable. Just a few other projects to finish first.

Junior , Ive posted building a " Knock down diorama " on a couple of other forums . You could do thois one in 124th if you were to do it that way . Leave the cars loose and have the grass mounted permently to the base . The garage would be seperate and the former pump island could also be seperated . Uh e-mail me at my Yahoo or p- M me and I will help you figgure this one out. Ed Shaver

I sure as heck don't have room for another. That thing would have to be at least 4x4 and my garage is only 20x24 hehe.
