    What do you get for a friend who has everything...? i was totally lost for ideas on what to get Bruce for Christmas... He's got everything he wants and needs... Then it hit me... Cavallino Models...! They do custom work...!

    So i immediately emailed Rita and asked her if she could replicate Bruce's 550... Sure enough, her reply was music to my ears... Everything would be an exact 1:18 duplicate, down to the color of the calipers, the piping, the modular wheels - everything...!

    My problem was solved... Thank you, Rita; thank you, Cavallino Models. :)

    The inscription on the plack is one of the best I've ever seen.


    Fantastic gift. (I'm assuming you've already given it to him and this isn't a preview)

    Very slick. Now you just need to thrown in cotton balls or other decoration to make it look snowed in.

    LOL...! i wonder if Rita can make me a 1:18 version of his dog, so i can put it on the hood...! :D


    Andreas, sorry; i wasn't thinking... Please forgive me... :)


    Fred - ROTFLMAO...!!!


    Charles, yes... At my request, Rita mailed the model straight to Bruce with specific instructions not to be opened until Christmas...


    Thanks, everyone... i'm really pleased (once again) with Cavallino Models...
