It may be missing a front plate Ben.

 The California Kid is indeed a nice one.

The '34 Ford coupe is IMHO about the best car of the 30s for hot rodding.

@mg-harv Thanks Harv, I didn't notice that....It is prolly in the box. When I bought it, the pics showed the front plate attached.

@ben-lampson Hope so. Mine has needed reattachment too - it's in a frail location.

Motor City also used the casting for a "generic" hot rod. They did a really nice job with it - paint smooth as glass.

Have both, love both. I also have the California Kid in 1/24 scale from Danbury Mint. I believe I bought the MOC Ca. Kid from John K. a few years ago at the Countryside show.
