Diecast 1:18 Eleanor Replica

Nice work, but the owner told me the reserve was set at $500.

It seems that even the die-cast model is the same crazy price as the "real" thing. Isn't a mustang supposed to be affordable (even a shelby)

It's already up to $180. Isn't there a company that makes an officialy licenses replica? It'd be far cheaper -- thought not "one" of a kind.

Yup. Looks like you're right. My brain had registered these "Gone In Sixty Seconds" original Classic cars from a few months back. Which is not the same as the newer Eleanor.

Well, some people just have money to waste. If I were the guy, I'd have been happy with $361.00.

Rumors in the diecast world have it that someone has been granted the licsense to produce an Eleanor replica due by the end of the year. However, if you are familiar with diecast you know nothing ever arrives on time.
