Whilst around a good friend and neighbour's recently we were discussing a number of models which had been entrusted to him to dispose of for another hobbyist. Amongst the average and above models there was a small green box which immediately set my heart racing. A mint and boxed Revell Aston Martin DB5 from the 1960's could it be true?? It certainly was.... A model I had as a young slot racer and now again a model I have once again. These models usually change hands for considerable amounts now, but I have acquired it for my own collection. Check out the pictures... it could well be 1966 all over again!! Will I build it? Probably not, although I do have a contemporary chassis which will slot straight in. This will need to go in the cabinet in a prominent position. Now I need the Mercedes SLR from the same series!
