1/43 444-500 Aurora Wheeler Cruiser Sports Fishing Yacht
Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: VG+
Very rare kit with great box art by Mort Kunstler. This is the first and probably only issue dated 1967. 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 to blame. This is a large-scale model with excellent detail. Features a one piece hull, complete 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 & oars, spray shields, display stand, 5 figures and much more. The kit has never been started. The blue and white parts are still in the factory sealed bags. The brown and chrome parts are loose and have been inventoried 100% complete. Includes instructions and decals. The chrome plating in in 'as new' condition. This kit must be shipped insured.
