Hawk Spad C13 - Solid Wood Model Airplane, 54
Wood Model Kit, Box Condition: Good+
$37
For the advanced Hawk collector. Hawk was one of the few manufacturers making wooden kits to a constant scale of 1/48. However, the company was innovative as it quickly included injection molded accessories. This kit dates from 1946 and contains profile precarved wooden main aircraft parts, injection molded wheels, propeller & machine guns, wooden stock as needed, metal seat and very large, full size superb plans with full templates, color guide, rigging diagrams, building illustrations with instructions and more. The model has not been started. Inventoried and NOTE: missing decals. Otherwise complete with all other parts and paperwork present.
Hubley 1930 Packard Sport Phaeton, 1/22, 4859
Metal Model Kit, Box Condition: Good++
$52
From the late 1960s/ early '70s and part of an incredibly popular line of classic cars by Hubley. It is very well detailed inside and out. Features 137 pieces, excellent and detailed cast-metal body, chassis, hood, engine and other detail parts with injection molded details, clear parts, a large tree of chrome plated parts, full rolling chassis just like the real car with excellent engine detail, complete exhaust and suspension, working steering, removable hood, flexible radiator hoses, rubber tires, chrome spoke wheels, working worm-gear steering, full interior detail with thin clear windshields and special interior side panels. NOTE: this kit has very minor and neat assembly as noted: engine halves, head and one small engine chrome piece are assembled to 'professional' quality. Also, the steering box cover is painted black. There is no other assembly or painting; however, one screw is broken off in the rear differential (where a suspension spring is attached; I would either drill it out or simply epoxy the spring to the differential). The model has been inventoried complete including decals, special interior side panel 'upholstery' and instructions. In the 1930s Packard was the style leader in America and a beautiful, fast status symbol. Packards were not the most expensive, but were the most desired cars. The 1930s Packards are seen as the high point of the brand.

Aurora Convair F-102 Dart - (Delta Dagger), 1/121, 290-29
Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: Good++
$42
Hardbox issue dated 1957 but probably from the early 1960s since the oval Aurora logo does not have 'Famous Fighters' in the outline. This popular small scale kit has dramatic Jo Kotula box artwork and is nicely molded with a clear canopy, full landing gear and display stand. This is a model of the very early YF-102 prototype with the straight (non-area rule) fuselage. The kit has never been started. Inventoried 100% complete including decals and instructions. Around this time, Aurora issued a series of inexpensive (usually 29 cent) small scale kits that were designed to sell at almost any type of retail location. The line was very successful and quickly expanded. When Aurora purchased the Comet molds, those models fit in nicely with this established line.

Aurora 1913 Mercer Raceabout - Old Timers Issue, 1/16, 572-198
Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: Sealed NM
$129
Still factory sealed with a very short split at the top right long side. Dated 1961. This big 1/16 scale model, along with the other 'Old Timers' represented a significant leap forward in quality for Aurora. It features a rolling chassis build like actual automobile, full suspension, transaxle and driveline, complete exhaust, detailed interior and more. Usually molded in gloss ivory, gloss black and with brass plated parts and real rubber tires. 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.
