One of the three models I have coming, also from the seller who provided me with the 1/16 1905 Rolls, the 1/24 1921 Rolls Royce S.G. Tourer and the 1/24 1941 Lincoln Continental.  This, too, arrived with original packaging and paperwork, in pristine condition.  I have to say, kudos to the seller, for his packing is beyond the norm, with layers to protect the model from just about anything, with the exception of a flamethrower.  I have been watching auctions for this model and most of them had yellowing on the whitewalls, lacking the hood ornament, and/or with 'sagging' doors.  I took a shot at this one and I am very pleased.  Forgive the quality of the photos, as I am not at my best and I promise to take more pics, when I am up to the challenge.
