I have the '53. I passed on this at the time because I didn't like the front end. In retrospect, I should have gone for it.

I have one, but it took two attempts to get one that didn't have a significant defect. Pickles and mustard color. These were towards the end when it was getting obvious DM was having big problems with quality from the manufacturer.

This is one of my all time favorites. Returned the 53 to DM. Too Plain. This one has a lot of extra stuff which makes up for the orphan brand to me. And I am a sucker for two tone yellow and yellow and green. Goes for $500-600 on Ebay right now, which was soon the price after they sold out.

It is rare. I never cared for this color-combo.
But, i love this body-style. To that end, I opted for the '57 Hawk / 'white'.

The color makes this model and the 1st reason I had to have one.
The 2nd reason was this one, a 1:1 that I am very familiar with and have seen for years.
