PMC 1959 VW Karmann Ghia Promo - (Volkswagen), 1/25
Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: Sealed Mint
Sold
Original dealer promotional model by Product Miniatures Company. This one is in exception condition. Like all originals, it has a natural metal chassis with no markings. Body color and gloss is almost factory-new and the body is straight. Many of these were natural plastic, but this look much more like factory paint. Chrome is 'excellent' with only slight wear on the front. The tires show no signs of wear and it has clearly never been played with. The windshield is also 'excellent.' I would grade this one a 9.3 out of 10 with deductions due to very slight chrome spotting on the front bumper and very light general wear. The box is not original. From the chassis these could come with or without a friction motor; this one clearly never had one installed and was always a roller.

Morgan, HMS Bounty, HMS Ark Royal, USS Constellation, British Bomb Ketch, Chinese War Junk, Elsie - Gloucester Fisherman, Henri Grace A'Dieu, Dutch Staten Jacht, Gotta Le Jon and others. 50 Cent/75 Cent kits in 1967 included the Mayflower, Barbary Pirate, USS Constitution, Santa Maria, Golden Hind, Half Moon, Bon Homme Richard, Brig of War, HMS Victory, Flying Cloud, Nina, Pinta, Santa Maria, La Reale French Galley, Venetian Carrack, Roman Merchant, Spanish Galleon and others.

Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: Good-
Sold
Dated 1994. Well detailed and molded kit with 103 parts. The kit has never been started. The parts are still in the internal factory sealed bags and includes decals and instructions. NOTE: This kit was factory sealed but it has been exposed to moisture - so I removed the seal to inspect it. The instructions are 'very good++' and the parts look perfect. The decals are still factory bag sealed but you can see discoloration on the backing sheet due to moisture exposure. You will probably need to supply your own decals.

Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: VG
Sold
Type Three logo issue. As her sister Rodney, she was designed with her main battery of 16" guns in triple turrets forward to make the armored box shorter to save weight. This did shorten the ship and reduce weight, but further sacrifices in available space and weight in propulsion made for a low top speed. Never started. Factory sealed internal bag with instructions.
