This is Yat Ming's 1/18 diecast model of the 132 Chevrolet 2 door coupe in blue. It is very nicely done at their price/detail point and looks good in this deep blue color. This General Motors car was before had their all-steel "turret top", so it has modeled that particular fabric insert in the top.
Mike, I don't ever remember seeing this model before...very nice. Most models of the 32 Chevrolet are of the Confederate series which look like baby Cadillacs. Your pictures are outstanding as usual.

Great pics Mike, but this 1/18 Yat Ming is a 1932 Ford...... Does YM make a 1/18 1932 Chevrolet too?

Ooops, I think you are right, Chris. I have it listed as a 1932 Chevrolet, but it appears to be their 1932 Ford 3 window coupe. I used to have a hot rod version, too.
What/where is that building in pic#8? Is it a converted train station?
Hi Rich : Actually, that building is known as the Arcade Building and it has been restored to a more 1880's original condition. It is right here in Riverside, IL and dates from 1879. It is right next to the railroad tracks, across the street from the historic train station.
@bob-jackman ...no explanation necessary sir. I was sort-of fooled too! I was excited to read about a 1/18 1932 Chevy (something I'd be interested in ) I looked, looked again, "Hey wait, that's a Ford!" 😣 😒 ☹
PS
I still have all THREE (unopened) Hubley 1/20 releases of their 1932 Chevrolet.
