Aurora 1/43 Wheeler Cruiser Sports Fishing Yacht, 444-650 plastic model kit

1/43 444-650 Aurora Wheeler Cruiser Sports Fishing Yacht

Plastic Model Kit,   Box Condition: Good

Very rare kit with great box art by Mort Kunstler. This is the first issue dated 1967; I am not aware of a second issue. Aurora did a beautiful job on this model, but it simply did not sell and was discontinued very shortly. The high price of $5 USD and the esoteric subject matter were likely to blame. This is a large-scale model with excellent detail and molded in white, medium wood tan, medium blue and chrome plate. Features a one piece hull, propeller and rudder detail, one piece main deck, venetian blinds for the larger interior windows, extensive deck fittings which are all separately molded, all hand rails (in chrome), dinghy with interior and oars, spray shields, display stand, 5 figures and more. The kit has never been started. The blue part are still in the factory sealed bag. All other parts have been inventoried 100% complete. Includes instructions and decals. The chrome plating in in 'as new' condition. Please note that the box has light wear, age foxing and one split corner at the lower right which has been duct taped.
