All right! This is right up my alley. Thanks for posting your pictures. It seems like not that many rally collectors in the US. I have several hundred 1/43 scale Monte Carlo cars, including these two.

database43, thanks and please keep posting. I have all of these you have posted so far, some from IXO and some from other manufacturers. (I have two different versions of the 240Z.)

I have all of the winners' cars from 1953 to 2007 except for the 1955 car, which was a Sunbeam MkIII. Before 53 I also have winner from 1939. I collect the top three finishers from each year and then one example of any other car model that ran in a particular year; about 250 Monte Carlo cars so far.

2nd place in 1981 with Guy Fréquelin/Jean Todt. The real car was sold in France back in the '80s. Color was black with silver stripes, it was, I think, the only color available. Engine is an in-line 4, DOHC, 2172cc and 150hp.

That's a pretty comprehensive collection, no shame about it !!!

Thank you for your kind words. I imagine it is one of the better ones in the USA, but there are not that many MC collectors over here. As a consequence, not many of these cars are carried by our dealers.

When I was a teenager (a long time ago), I lived in the French Riviera and every January we used to go to the Turini, spending all night in the snow to watch the cars doing three times the Turini and at the end of the night we drove down to Monaco to see the cars gathered in a parking lot. It brings back so many good memories !

I must tell you that I envy you these memories! I have collected several books about the MC rally and it is exciting to read about. It must have been so much more exciting to see the Turini in person. Were you one of those mischievous spectators who shoveled snow into the paths of the British teams? :eek: The history books seem to indicate that this was a common occurrence.

Although I still enjoy the rally today, I agree that it was much more interesting before 1990. One of the main reasons I bought my 69 Citroen DS is because the DS has a successful MC history.

No, no ! Dumping snow on the road was stupid and even criminal !!! I didn't support a team in particular although my heart was beating for Lancia !

Driving a DS in the USA, that is kind of unusual ! I'm curious to know about what American people think when they see a DS ??? You know that in Europe, the Dutchs are crazy about Citroën (André Citroën's father was Dutch), they buy the most beautiful remaining samples of DS, ID, Ami 6, 2CV, Type H... from France

Well, most Americans alive now have never seen one except perhaps in the movies. Only a few can identify what it is. However, I live in the Washington DC area and we have many African immigrants. Many of them recognize the car and remarque to me about it, since the DS was also very popular in larger African cities with French influence. It was also manufactured by Citroen for a time in South Africa. Just like everywhere else, most people who see it think it's pretty cool and a few people hate it. There is no accounting for taste...
