AMT 1956 Buick Century Convertible Promo Friction Drive Motorized, 1/25
Plastic Model Kit
Sold
Original dealer promotional model. And AMT went to a good deal of effort on this model! It features a all-metal chassis, friction motor (which works), metal axles and gear, metal rear bumper, front bumper and grille, metal portholes and two tone interior. Clean windshield is excellent. The body has good color and gloss. This is a celluloid plastic body, so there is some warping, but less than what 90% of the survivors have. It is still very displayable. The boot and steering wheel rim have been very neatly painted by the previous owner. If any of the other silver trim is not factory painted, it sure is neat enough to pass for it!

Since the kit was designed new, it has significantly more detail than the older Comet kits. Features all recessed panel lines, full interior with a sofa, two seats and instrument panel, clear windows, rotating propeller and complete landing gear. The kit has never been started. It has been inventoried complete with all parts and includes decals and instructions. This is an Aurora Holland issue with the original English instructions.
