Zero wood trim. That's gold anodized aluminum.

New Color

Sun Star has just released another color variation of the 'Skyliner' This one 'Dresden Blue' and White. (same color as the monochromatic 1:24 DM version)
In my opinion SS really captured the design of this car in this early but so well done model.- One of my favorite designs from the era. - I think I have at least 6 color versions of the model.
Of course your glorious photos gild the lily so to speak.

Nice photos Mike. I have two of these. The all black version and white over yellow one. My only complaint is that on my yellow version one of the roof parts broke it's fragile hinge and now the roof can only displayed in the down position.
