Stoney Mountain Classic Castings had a bunch of 'em a few years ago. Resin castings that required painting. I'd love to get one or two of their '47-'48 Chevy Fleetline Aerosedans. Your only hope is e-bay, I'd say.

Williams Brothers has a few

I tried to sell my two cents worth, but no one would give me a plug nickel for it.

I don't have a leg to stand on.

I built some Jordan Products Highway Miniatures car kits about 10 years ago or so. Good quality plastic kits, mostly from the 1910's & 20's. Walthers carries Jordan kits, though cars from the era are limited. Still, worth the effort & some different paint schemes will make the selection go further.

Chris,
One source is Sylvan Scale Models:
http://www.isp.on.ca/sylvan/ho-scaleproducts.htm
And another Web site you'll want to visit is:
http://www.1-87vehicles.org
Others will no doubt have other sites to recommend. Think that if you use the
Search the forums ... option at the top of this page you'll find this question appears on some earlier threads.
