Issue 2 of The Diecast Magazine features a variety of scaled die cast models including American and International race cars, road cars, and more.

Featured in this issue of The Diecast Magazine is a diverse range of die-cast vehicles from road and race. We feature an exclusive “scoop” on the Franklin Mint model of the 1965 Lambandi MkII. This is a model we are sure will grab the interest of many collectors. Corvette fans are well catered for thanks to the L-88 Corvettes from Carousel 1 and the massive 1:6 scale 1957 Corvette from Highway 61.
