Car Room TV: Danbury Mint 1956 Buick Roadmaster 

Danbury MInt models are the best die cast models I have encountered in recent times. It is too bad they went out of business.

beautiful beautiful casting and color combination just awesome memories seeing it on streets 1956

@backinblack19 That's a small ball of butyl rubber. The stuff is usually used to hold windshields in place on real cars, but it's sort of a super sticky "fun tack" that I use to help open doors and such on model cars. It works great! You have to be careful, though - if you're not careful, you can pull off chrome trim or badges. Thanks for watching!

@Seattlecarnut We're with you on that. Buicks of the 'fifties had an undefined majesty... truly beautiful automobiles. And the colors were the icing on the (very large) cake. Thanks for watching!

Great show my friend KEEP IT UP!!!! Cool die cast.......I LOVE all cars any scale, my favorite Vintage Drag......

@dacasman Yes, they do have a higher quality. These are clips taken from our live show, which airs every Saturday night at 7PM Eastern US. The older video clips were shot in hi-def, and took two-three days to produce (we also wrote the music, and did all the production in house). Our time these days is divided between our print magazine - The Car Room - and this show. Thanks for watching!

@MrCommanderData Thanks (and great name, man!). We're big fans of the Mints, and we're always on the lookout for what they have up next. As for that Sunstar - it's a nice piece. It's an early part of the "Platinum" lineup. If I could make a suggestion - go for a hardtop or the top-down convertible - and seal the photoetched insignias to the model with some dullcote laquer IMMEDIATELY, or you'll ultimately lose them if you wipe the car down. Thanks for watching!

@Thecarroom well either way, i love your videos, they are the the first ones i watch every time i check my sub box. i cant wait for your new camera setup. i'm looking forward to seeing some of the details better on these beautiful models.

@rotativo13 Thanks, man! Sorry we missed this post - thanks for being a regular part of Car Room TV!

They're going fot a lot more than $129 now !! Hope someone out there jumped on these ! Enjoy PEACE from Philadelphia

@Thecarroom Thanks Joe !!

@manoman0 Hello - Sorry about that, but we don't know of any model of the kind you're looking for. You might be able to find a promo model (of the kind that Chevrolet dealerships used to give out to potential customers), but other than that, I'm afraid we can't help.

Where can I find one of those? I have been looking for a long time and I can't find one... I own a 1956 Buick Roadmaster 4 Door Hardtop... Its my baby... I want a small one for a display...

What is that black thing u use to open doors etc...

it seems that your older videos have better video quality

Are the wheels spinning ?

@TheCarroom: Can you find me a 1:18 or bigger 1972 Chevrolet Impala 4-door hardtop coupé (pilarless)? In forest green? The car can be seen in "Forrest Gump", the first few opening mins of the movie. Thank you

@Thecarroom That, I feared you would say *sigh*
