Aurora Avanti, 1/25, 560-198
Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: VG
Sold
1963 issue and very well detailed for that time. Aurora's larger scale modern car kits were always miles ahead of their aircraft in quality and detail, and this one is no exception. Features rolling chassis construction like the real car including full exhaust, drive-line and suspension, detailed engine & engine compartment, opening hood, complete interior, opening doors, opening trunk with spare tire, tire cover, luggage for the trunk and more. Molded in gloss beige, clear, black and chrome with rubber tires. The chrome is in 'new' condition. The kit has never been started. The black parts are still factory bag sealed. The parts that were never sealed have been inventoried complete with the instructions. It was surprising that Monogram did not reissue this kit - it certainly met their quality standards, just as the XKE and other ex-Aurora 1/25 cars did. Perhaps it was the lack of interested in the Avanti (at that time) that made the decision.

Athearn MKT 50 Foot Auto Box Car - Metal HO Craftsman Kit, 1/87
Metal Model Kit, Box Condition: Exc
Sold
In the 1930s and especially during the 40s/early 50s there was a revolution in model railroading: high quality kits became available for the first time. Before this, there were few standard gauges and most railroads were scratch built to any gauge the collector desired. This kit is a classic Athearn model from that era. These kits build very realistic models because parts that are metal on the real box car are metal in the kit; same for the wooden parts. All sides are factory painted and decorated the correct colors, leaving very little painting. Includes wooden floor, metal roof and car ends as well as opening doors, metal underside and detail fittings such as AB brake set, brake wheel, etc. These make great stand alone models or high-quality rolling stock for your line. The kit has not been started. All small parts are still in factory sealed bags and all other parts have been inventoried complete with the car sides in as new condition.

Sold
Large scale model for free flight, radio control conversion (R/C) or control line.

The kit has never been started. Inventoried 100% complete including decals and instructions. Sterling was a famous manufacturer dating back to the 1930/40s flying model craze. Although they continued to produce kits for decades after the flying model slump following World War II, they eventually fell victim to the general lack of interest in modeling that occurred in the early 1980s. I always considered Sterling models to be deluxe kits as they were very complete.
