    Picked up one of these EMC/B&G Duesenberg SJ Arlington 1933 Torpedo sedans J-513 "Twenty Grand" 1/43rd models(limited to 200 and made by hand in the Ukraine to a very high standard ). What a work of art. B&G had a great selection of Bugatti and Duesenberg models for sale, and to say they are rare is a major understatement. Anything EMC makes is absolute top quality. They make BBR's look like toys!! Also one of the rows of cars on display. Met a lot of vintage Ferrari collectors at the show, and that is what I enjoy the most about this show. Amazing some of the great stories you hear.

    I just wish this show took place later in the year when winter weather wasn't a possible issue.

    I did OK. Sold most of my collection of TOFM & Rossa Ferrari, along with several models.
    Still need to sell brochures, books & models next.

    Super arrangement as the books and magazines are really heavy and it is a challenge to get the models safely shipped! We don't have a show like that up here...

    I've been attending this show since it started at the Como Inn in Downtown Chicago, in the late '70's.
    I think the internet killed off most of these shows. I'm attending another one here in the Detroit area for model cars in a few weeks. We'll see if I can sell anything there.
    The net changed everything.
    All the collectors got old!

    this car is based upon a 550 maranello, not on the 575 , the later coupes were based upon a 575 chassis
