American-made
Collectible Cars
Have you ever seen those model cars from Franklin Mint or
other familiar company names? I can remember buying an expensive model car
for Christmas one year for a car enthusiast on my Christmas list, and I
couldn’t believe that with the high price I paid, the car was made in China.
All future mail from that company promptly went in the trash.
So if you’re an enthusiast of classic cars or trucks, how can you be a
collector and still buy American? By visiting www.carllectibles.com.
Carllectibles are handmade sculptural tributes to the original designers,
builders and drivers of the most awesome machines on the planet. The Extreme
Limited Editions, which come in editions of 50 cars or less, are made in USA
and come with a Certificate of Authenticity. They are also permanently
signed and dated for future valuation.
It’s always best to support home-grown American companies like Carllectibles.
Joel Dunford, owner and founder of Carllectibles, studied art in Dayton,
Ohio where he was born and raised and attended the Dayton Art Institute and
Cincinnati Central Academy of Art before earning a Bachelor of Fine Arts
degree from California State University. Several of his cars remain
available at the SEMA (Special Equipment Market Association) Fine Art
Exhibit. He was also commissioned by drag racing legend Don “the Snake”
Prudhomme to make an exclusive line of cars including different styles of
’41 Willys, Top Fuel Dragsters and Camaro Funny Cars.
The American Thunder series is a very special Extreme Limited Edition. In
these editions, one car is dedicated to each of the 50 states with the state
silhouette permanently fired on. At this time, the 1941 Willys Pro Street
and the 1969 Camaro are available in this exciting series. From the Cobra
427 to the 57 Chevy, you can find it at www.Carllectibles.com.
Most Carllectibles! are 1/16th scale or approximately 12 inches long, but
the scale might vary slightly with the model of your car. Each sculpture is
hand-finished with the details permanently fired on to ensure lasting
beauty, and all wheels, headlights and chrome details are meticulously
finished in 24 carat white gold!
You can secure your Carllectible with three E-Z payments, meaning you can
have your credit card billed over three months or send three post-dated
checks.
