Just noticed that the 1/18 scale 1962 Chrysler Newport wagon by BoS (Best of Show) is now in stock at American Excellence. They have already released 1/18 scale Imperials from 57, 65, 71, and 74, as well as a 60 Valiant sedan, and a 67 Newport convertible,61 Dart Phoenix 4 door, 73 New Yorker, and a mid 70's Dodge Ramcharger, all in 1/18 scale. Just released this week are the 62 Newport wagon, the 56 DeSoto 4 door hardtop and the 52 Dodge Coronet Club Coupe. Later this year, there will be a 62 Chrysler 300 coupe, and a 62 Imperial Crown 4 door hardtop.
These cars look great sitting on the shelf and are quite heavy. There is nice detail in the exterior trim, and the interiors look nice as well. But, there are no opening features and there is no detail on the chassis. BoS makes models in various scales from 1/87 up to 1/18 scale, and cars they make in one scale are not always offered in other scales. Watch the scale as you search the list of BoS models.

That looks like a resin cast model. The detail is much better in plastic or resin than diecast metal imo.
