How far back they go is unknown; they claim to have the 'Know How of 30 Years Experience' on the box side, but that could be interpreted many ways. From the box there was at least a Spad, SE-5, Fokker DVII, Niuport and a Sopwith Camel for rubber power as well as the 'Spacer A-B' & 'Spacer 1/2A' and the indoor Featherette. We know they also issued some ex-Suydam railroad kits as well.

AMT 1964 Chevrolet Impala SS Convertible Promo With Friction Drive Motor, 1/25
Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: VG
$28
Original dealership promotional model but please read carefully as it is not perfect. The model is complete and paint color and gloss are excellent with very few flaws. Chrome, tires and clear are also 'excellent.' Bright trim, fog lights, boot, sun visors and chassis plate are very neatly painted; paint quality is better than much of that from the factory. NOTE: the top windshield header was once broke but is complete and glued back on. Same with the steering wheel ring. For all these reasons it is priced well under market.
