Aurora Aero Commander 680, 1/81, 285-29
Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: VG
Sold
Still the only plastic kit of this venerable corporate workhorse. 1963 first Aurora release (29 cent price extension) from ex-Comet molds. The kit has never been started. It has been inventoried complete with all parts and includes decals and instructions. The Aero Commander was a state-of-the-art twin engine light transport from the early 1960s. It was built by Aero Design and Engineering Co. of Bethany, Oklahoma. It was the first twin engine aircraft to be used by the President of the United States and served in this capacity in the early 1960s. This high performance 5 to 7 place was popular with business travelers and had a range of 1,050 miles and a ceiling of 22,000 feet. The Aero Commander led to the Jet Commander, which became the IAI 1121 through 1124 Westwind business jets. Aero Commanders can still be seen at some airports in excellent condition, but many are neglected as newer aircraft are in favor.

Matchbox TWO M16 Halftrack / TWO SdKfz 234/2 Puma / TWO Churchill AVRE, 1/76, PK78
Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: Good
Sold
SALE!! Includes all 6 kits in the three boxes shown. NOTE: Sold AS-IS and not inventoried. This collector was very meticulous and of his kits that I did inventory, 95% are complete. But on these kits he cut the sprue (trees) with the part numbers still attached to each number, so the parts are loose. Because of that, I have not inventoried these kits. NOTE: he built sub assemblies to 'professional' quality. Some assembly is minor but some is major. He also almost always removed the display stands (if provided). Again, these kits are sold not inventoried and AS IS hence the very low price.
