Love the cars from the 30's...

One of these models is a preproduction sample, could you spot it?

My version of the Talbot has a single bumper mounted road lamp.

The Alfa??? Interior looks brownish. Production has red interior. Just a guess

It is the Alfa, the production had brown seats with black washout. This one doesn’t have the washout and it has no plaque with the production number (something not shown on my pictures). This one was just eBay find, I have no certificate to prove it, seller was clueless. There was black Alfa with read seats that is a color sample. Back in the days when it was available for sale I did not bid on it because it was something easy to replicate with black body and red interior from a red Alfa.

@djtusn3950 Thanks, somebody asked for a size comparison between the Talbot and other models and that is how this group was assembled... I just pulled 2 other cars from the same era and took few shots.

@djtusn3950

Same here. I decided to limit my collecting mostly to 1940 to 1990s American brands from Danbury, Franklin Mint, and WCPD.

I'm out of display room but Chav sho' has some beautiful models!
