Aurora 1903 Rambler Model E Touring Car, 1/16, 151
Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: Exc+
$79
1964 issue of Aurora's 'Super Detailed Museum Model with Plated Parts.' Done in a big 1/16 scale, this kit and the other 'Old Timers' in the series represented a significant leap forward in quality for Aurora. This kit features full engine, transaxle and driveline detail, complete interior, suspension and steering linkage, exhaust and more. Molded in red, black and with brass plated parts and real white rubber tires. Never started. The parts have been inventoried 100% complete and includes instructions. Aurora was renowned for turning a profit and for keeping expenses down. In researching new kit subjects, they came upon a forgotten jewel - the Hudson Miniatures line of 1/16 scale wooden kits. Hudson had discontinued this line due to lack of sales of wooden kits. But the Hudson models were second to none in quality, research and documentation. Aurora was quick to realize this and used the research and layout from these kits to create the subjects for this 'Old Timers' series. It is fortunate for us that they did, because in most cases this is the only injection molded kit of these rare and classic early automobiles.

Monogram Boeing 727 TWA - (exAurora), 1/96, 5414
Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: Good-
$79
1978 issue after Aurora went out of business and Monogram bought their molds. Monogram only reissued Aurora's best and most commercially viable kits and the 727 was one of the few that made the cut. In this case, they saw the molds could be improve, and the result is a much better & accurate kit and the best 'short' body 727 available in near 1/100 scale. Monogram added a network of very fine raised panel lines to the fuselage (the original had no panel lines), filled the deep e-doors over the wings and made them fine raised also, added wing fences & fine raised panel lines to the wings, added flap hinges to the wing undersides and added fine raised panel lines to the horizontal stabilizers. Monogram was evidently proud of the improvement, illustrating them on the assembly drawings. With full landing gear. Contains excellent TWA full stripes and window decals. This kit has not been started. The parts are still in the factory sealed bag. Includes decals and instructions.
