Luxury car kits
Posted by Bocks Suv on Friday, January 20, 2023 11:43 PM

Dont any makers release model kits of super deluxe exotic cars from the 30s-50s... Those art deco custom jobs you see pics of from those 1%er car shows In Monterrey or Dubai? I dont want the kits to be crazy expensive like Pocher, just the cars depicted. Any thoughts or suggestions appreciated.

Italeri used to make some super-cars from the thirties in 1:24. There is a Bugatti, a Chrysler, a Cadillac Fleetwood and a Rolls Royce... Not much, but it's a start... Hope it helps, have a nice day

Hmmmm:

       As was stated, Italeri Had a nice collection, then there was Monogram with theirs and lastly Jo-Han with their great series. I don't know of anyone else. But they can be found at F;ea markets and from vendors at I.P.M.S. and Train Shows.There is also a chance to pick them up from Sellers on "The Bay" Like Ballzanos Hobbies who has always treated me Fair and Square!

Entex did a great 1:16 1937 Packard Town car.  JoHan made a 1:25 Cadillac Town car,forget year.  Monogram did both a %$K and a 500K.

Minicraft made a number of 1:16 cars of 20s-30s, including Jag S100 and MGTC.

I was lucky enough to pick up That Packard last fall at a swap  meet at a contest.

They are all out of production, and can only be found on EBay or at swap meets.  Aurora made a bunch in 1:16, but they tend to be earlier, teens and twenties but they are nice kits.
