Just wanted to throw this photo out there.  The model is named "Penny Saved" and it's shown here in 1/32 scale in the front, followed by 1/18, 1/10 and the huge 1/5th scale. |

I remember these. I have a couple of them, including the smallest 'Penny Saved'.
I didn't know it was made in four different scales.
I think I bought them both at the grocery store on clearance about 7-8 years ago.
They really are very nice diecast bikes.

Great looking bike The neat thing about that tank, besides being copper is that it is NOT welded, like most tanks, but riveted only. Jesse went to an old school master, Fay Butler in Massachusetts to learn how. He even bought a 35 thousand dollar riveter to do it. you have to admire someone who can dedicate himself that deeply to creating something different. And, Jesse's in the diecast hall of fame for these bikes. |
