Pyro Auburn 1935 Supercharged 851 Boattail Speedster, 1/25, C331-98
Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: Exc++
Sold
Likely the third issue of the only larger scale Auburn kit in injection molded plastic. The '35 Auburn weighed 4200 lbs. and was one of the few cars of that time to have hydraulic brakes. Power came from a 150hp (@4000) supercharged engine with three inch exhaust pipes that easily sped the car to over 100 mph. Ab Jenkins set a record with a stock issue 851 at Bonneville Salt Flats in July of 1935, and became the first one to pilot a stock car for over 12 hours at an average of over 100 mph. Molded in red and includes a fully positionable female driver molded in peach plastic. Features complete engine, hinging/opening hood and 'good' interior detail. Never started. Inventoried complete with all parts and instructions. This is a rather simple kit but I have seen it look excellent built up if you are willing to take the time to detail it.

Fire Force South African Defense Force Eland 90 Armoured Car, 1/35
Resin Model Kit, Box Condition: VG++
Sold
Very rare. Nicely molded high-definition resin kit with very good overall detail. The kit has never been started. It has been inventoried complete with all parts and includes instructions. Painting and insignia details are included. The Eland was the standard armoured car of the SADF and was originally developed as an improved Panhard. The Panhards were almost completely unsatisfactory; South Africa rebuilt them, gaining valuable experience along the way. When replacements were needed, they produced the local Eland series. This was one of the first all-South African manufacturing and design programs to be undertaken after WW2. Elads were superbly suited to the terrain and tactics of the SADF and proved their worth over and over in combat. Rhodesian operated them also.
Aurora Messerschmitt Me-109 Famous Fighters of All Nations - (Bf-109) - Yellow Box Ends, 1/48, 55A-69
Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: Good+
Sold
I believe this is the 4th edition of this kit, and the first issue with this Jim Cox boxart. Most likely from 1955/56 with small 'Aurora Line' rectangular logo and 'Famous Fighters of All Nations.' Correctly molded in metallic burgundy and clear with the correct rectangular clear stand. For this issue the factory changed the swastikas on the tail to iron crosses and decals as well. The kit has never been started. It has been inventoried complete with all parts and includes decals and instructions. The instructions are 'excellent +' condition with very little yellowing and just at touch of edge wear; the decals are a surprising 'very good++' with only a slight twist and yellowing. It is interesting that the Me-109 never carried the standard Aurora 'Northern Lights' logo for 1956.
