1/8 AK202-59 Monogram Oval Gas Tank - Custom Accessories For 1/8 Scale Cars
Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: Good+
Very rare and dated 1963. First and only Four-Star issue of this rare accessory for customizing and of Monogram's large 1/8 car kits or any other larger car kit. The beautifully chromed parts in factory-new condition and includes the large chrome tank with embossed 'FORD' ends, filler cap, mounting platform and excellent instructions. Never started and complete. The parts are still wrapped in the original factory tissue paper. The clear cellophane window on the back is in mint condition. In an attempt to make the superb but very expensive 1/8 car molds pay off, Monogram issued some parts separately as accessories for any larger car models. The entire line came out in 1963 and consisted of AK201-59 Six Carb Assembly, AK202-59 Oval Gas Tank, AK203-79 Drag Race Set, AK204-79 GMC Blower Set, AK205-79 Chrome Wheel Set, AK206-100 White Wall Drag Slicks and AK207-79 White Wall Tires. Sales were very weak because all of the 1/8 scale car kits were very expensive for that time, so and the line was discontinued.
