Thumbs up Car Castings... Thoughts?

Hello All,
I work for a Bronze foundry in Boring, Oregon. We recently acquired a 3D scanner and my boss is talking about all the possibilities. Being a car enthusiast (and living with one), my first thought is classic cars in bronze. Key chains, mini models, decorative (lamps). The possibilities are limitless. When I offered to let him scan the 427 Cobra in my garage, he was baffled and asked what a 427 Cobra is. Clearly, he doesn't want to head this project. Therefore, I, proudly get to. My first job is finding out the demand for this, keep in mind we cast in bronze and other metals, with patina we can make the sculptures look like any car you wish with the same paint job! Picture, a paperweight that is a miniature of your classic car (or your mini van, if that is what you are into). How many out there would be interested in these services? Honest answers, please. Thanks!
Jessica E.
