Larry Watson's '58 T-Bird Custom 1:1 ...

Yesterday morning at work , an older gentleman and his wife came in to my place-of-employment in the restored  Larry Watson 1958 Thunderbird custom !!

: file:///C:/Documents%20and%20Settings/DON%20HUGHES/My%20Documents/Downloads/Custom%20Cars%201959b.jpg  ** not sure if this will show up as a link or simply the image's address **

It's one thing to see this gem in magazines and photos , and another to see it en vitro !

Faithfully restored , it still has its original FE engine ( 352 ? 360 ? Not up on what engine was used o.e.m. this year ... ) , its original Ford-O-Matic , (Dodge) Lancer "Spinner Caps" , etc.

With this in mind , I am wondering :

1.) Does R-M still make its 1958 T-Bird

2.) Has anyone here replicated this beauty in scale

I'd like to see 'em !
