looking for Nash-Healey

If there's a 1/43rd Nash-Healey out there, I'd certainly like to know where to pick one up; diecast pre-assembled, diecast kit, resin, whatever.

I collect "Ameripowered cars" European w/American engines. I already have most of the common ones, and several of the more obscure ones (A major coup was a 30-year old kit of a Hudson-powered Railton never out of the bag), but I'd really like a Nash-Healey, either the eraly "Panelcraft" version or the later "Pininfarina" car.

Also wouldn't mind a TVR Griffith 200/400 (not 500), or Gantura that I could butcher into one. And a DeTomaso Longchamp. And a Brough Superior...

...gee I guess despite the clutter on the display shelf, there ARE quite a few still to pick up.:eek:

Wow; found one, on eBay. A "Mikansue" kit which IIRC means the kit is over 30 years old. Hope I win the bidding.

Ouch. I gave up when bidding went over $134 for an old, assembled but not painted kit.

I'll keep looking.

A search of the net shows one manufacturer planning -- but at some future unspecified date -- a Nash-Healey, but in 1/18th scale.
