AMT 1966 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible Promo With Original Box And Tissue Paper, 1/25
Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: Good
$375
Very, very rare promotional model, especially in this condition and with the original box. The box is stamped "CORVETTE CONV. 1736 SILVER PEARL." This is a one-owner model that was obtained new on November 5, 1965 in Lexington KY. It has never been displayed and has been stored in the original box and tissue since it left the factory. It is 100% complete and original with zero repairs or touch-ups. The paint and chrome are in factory-new condition. There is zero body warp and the clear is in 'mint' condition. I would grade this one 9.5 out of 10 with 10 flawless. The deduction is because there is a closed split (fits back perfectly) at the drivers side vent frame and the A pillar. Nothing is broken off, and the crack closes perfectly (it is invisible), so this is completely repairable; but I'll leave that to the new owner. Even includes the original factory packing paper. The box is complete with all flaps and solid but has wear as shown and age foxing.

Aurora 1913 Mercer Raceabout Old Timers, 1/16, 572-198
Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: Good
$74
1961 issue. Done in a big 1/16 scale, this kit and the other 'Old Timers' in the series represented a significant leap forward in quality for Aurora. The kit features full suspension, transaxle and driveline detail. It builds up a rolling chassis like the real car, and includes full exhaust and a detailed interior. Molded in gloss ivory, gloss black and with chrome plated parts and real rubber tires. The kit has never been started. Inside, it is exactly as it left the factory. The black parts are still in the factory sealed bags. The ivory, chrome and clear were never factory sealed and have been inventoried complete including the instructions. Please note that the radiator emblem is neatly broken off but present for a simple repair. 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.

Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: Good+
$62
The Daimler company created the first practical gasoline powered automobile in 1886 when everyone else was still using steam power. The lightweight Benz gas engine was a breakthrough when married to the Daimler coach. This is a fine model from the original high-quality Bandai molds and features engine, driveline, front and rear suspension, steerable front wheels and more. Molded in green, black, dark brown, chrome plate and brass plate. Never started and the parts are still in the internal factory sealed bags and includes instructions. This is part of an incredible series of very large 1/16 scale automobile kits produced by Bandai which are very well detailed inside and out even by today's standards. Thankfully, Entex reissued them in the USA in the 1970s which has made them much more available. The Japan issues are rare and they were mainly available in that country, through certain west-coast mail order hobby shops and US Military PX stores.
