Tom,
The listing is made up and has become the newest urban legand to be passed
around via email. I even saw a piece on it on CNBC.

Dear list,

I realize there has been good coverage of '57 300 diecast models on this
list, but I don't recall this one being mentioned.  I received one of
these (along with the other offerings) as a gift, last year.  It is 1/87
scale, which is perfect for use on an HO train layout. 

http://www.modelexpo-online.com/em115/

It is made by Classic Metal Works, has an opening hood with engine, and
comes in more than one color.

Bob J
