Released 20+  years ago in 1999, this was the first edition of this model.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family:Verdana;color:#000000;font-size:8.5pt;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size:small;\"\u003eCollectors Note: This casting is one of the mysteries of Matchbox Collecting. It is a very nicely detailed casting of one of the most iconic cars ever produced. Every diecast firm has done a 55 Bel Air hardtop in just about every scale, and they do dozens of color variations of each one. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family:Verdana;color:#000000;font-size:8.5pt;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size:small;\"\u003eYet for some reason this is one of the least produced castings from MB, with only 11 variations ever made. We are really at a loss as to why this beautiful casting was not used much more often??? The upside, is that makes these Bel Airs VERY collectible!\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family:Verdana;color:#000000;font-size:8.5pt;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size:small;\"\u003eIt is a great cross-collectible, so if you collect Matchbox, Chevrolet, or Tri-Chevys this will be a wonderful addition to your collection.
