Airfix TWO SR.N4 Hovercraft-Hoverlloyd Swift 'Montebatten' Class, 1/144, SK912
Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: VG

Large and very highly detailed featuring clear roof to show the interior, complete interior with all seats/tables/ cabins and car ferry area, optional position loading rams for thru-ship drive-on-drive off loading/unloading, 1/144 scale automobiles, complete bridge with control panel, seats, etc and much more. With decals for Hoverlloyd or BR Seaspeed version. NOTE: one model is 90% built to 'excellent to very good' standards and has only minor paint. The other kit is unbuilt. NOTE: NOT INVENTORIED and sold AS-IS, hence the low price. The parts are loose, so you are taking a chance. The original owner was fairly meticulous, so there is a good chance you will end up with one complete kit (and perhaps 2).

Hudson Miniatures 1911 Brush Model C Delivery Old Timers, 1/16
Wood and Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: Fair
Sold
Dated 1949. Large scale and very well detailed for that time. Features numerous die-cut and machined/cut to shape wooden parts, beautiful plastic wheels, grill, steering wheel and other accessories, metal louvered hood, metal stock and parts and die-cut cardstock. Although all of Hudson's 1/16 kits are excellent, this one has even more detail than usual thanks to Hudson's engineers having access to the actual car owned by Mr. Austin Clark. The kit has never been started. It has been inventoried complete with all parts and includes decals and instructions. Please NOTE that the Long Island Automotive Museum decals are fine but the Furniture ones are stuck hard to each other. The Brush Delivery Model C was manufactured by Brush Runabout Company, which was a division of the famous United States Motors. It sold for $650 and was powered by a one cylinder 64 HP engine linked to a gear-set type two speed + reverse multiple disc clutch transmission. Hudson Miniatures created a very popular line of automobile kits in a constant 1/16 scale shortly after WWII. The kits sold very well...so well that you could argue that Gowland & Gowland borrowed Hudson's subject matter for their ground-breaking 'Highway Pioneers.' The Hudson Miniatures 'Old Timers' even spawned a line of imitators, with Fador's 'Smallster' being one of the better in quality. Sales did drop on the appearance and popularity of the much smaller (and less accurate) Gowland/Revell 'Highway Pioneers' in 1951. When the all-injection molded Gowland kits proved not to be a passing fad, Hudson quickly planned and released his own all-plastic, small-scale competition called 'Lil' Old Timers Quickie Kits.' The kits were of excellent quality, but it was too little too late. Additionally, sales of the excellent wooden kits faltered further in the next few years with the introduction of accurate, 1/24 and 1/32 all-plastic cars in the mid 1950s. This forced Hudson to discontinue the wood kits and the plastic line was sold to Revell and subsequently re-released. Today, these excellent, big 1/16 kits are often the only model available of these early automobiles. In the mid 1960s Aurora thought so highly of Hudson Miniatures that they purchased the wood kit assets and released a very small number of these in all-plastic models.
