Airfix Trans-Canada Vanguard - Vickers Vanguard Jet-Prop Of Trans-Canada Airlines, 1/144, 4-98
Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: Good-
$38
From the 1960s and an ideal builder. The British were very quick to design and build successful turbo (jet) prop airliners after the war. The turboprops had superior speed, range and fuel economy. The Vanguard was one of several excellent designs. She cruised at 425 MPH with a full passenger load and 7 to 8 tons of cargo below the cabin. NOTE: this kit has minor and neat sub-assembly as follows: wing halves; elevator halves. Assembly is performed to 'near mint' standards. There is no other assembly but please note that the tops of the both fuselage halves are painted white. I recommend removing the paint with spray-on oven cleaner. Inventoried 100% complete with all parts and includes 'excellent' condition colorful Trans-Canada Air Lines decals and instructions.

Verneuil Panhard 1891 Europe Model Kits, 1/32
Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: Good
$28
The 1891 Panhard was among the very first modern cars and with it's groundbreaking innovations was certainly the grandfather of the present day automobile. This is a rare kit of this historic automobile from when France clearly lead the automotive world in technology and quality. This happened largely because the French people, government and authorities embraced the horseless carriage; this was the opposite of what happened in most countries, especially Great Britain where they regulated it almost completely out of existence. The actual model is nicely molded and features about 75 pieces, detailed suspension and drive line, large assembly guide with numbered parts layout, text & fully illustrated step-by-step instructions and automobile history (in French). There is no assembly but NOTE: the spokes of two wheels have been very neatly painted red. There is no other painting. Inventoried complete with all parts and instructions present.

In some cases, the specific car and owner is on the box. The model includes colored injection molded parts, clear parts, detailed chassis and complete interior. Ideal for slot car conversion.

Revell Douglas AD-6 Skyraider - AH-1 Navy Attack Aircraft - 'S' Issue, 1/40, H269-198
Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: Good++
$179
Very rare original "S" kit from 1959. The box states "So Realistic It Does Everything But Fly!" and that is no idle boast. It is full of action features; the wings fold, dive brakes operate, arresting hook moves, canopy slides to show full cockpit, landing gear retracts and cowling comes off to show fully detailed engine. The most interesting thing is that the landing gear retracts and extends with a very complicated gear system that is operated from a central point. Molded in the correct gloss medium gray and clear plastic. Never started. It has been inventoried complete with all parts and includes decals and instructions. Decals are in amazing 'near mint' condition with slight yellowing as the only flaw and the instructions are in the same condition also. Please note that the box is solid with 'very good' color and gloss, four perfect corners, no repairs, no price tags or tape (other than the factory sealing tape of course) but it is rated only 'good++' because it has age spotting; a series of small light brown spots on the box top and also on the left short box end.
