For the most part, I concentrate my collecting interests to cars of the 40s & 50s, with a bit of the 60s thrown in for good measure. This doesn't stop me from exploring interesting models from any decade. For the most part, models prior to the 30s are far scarcer. Or at least I find fewer of them interesting enough to consider. For this model, that wasn't the case. From the 1st look at the photos on eBay, I was intrigued and the more I viewed them, I found myself captivated by the overall look. I ordered the model, and I can say, I'm still captivated by it. I wouldn't have known about it if I hadn't went looking for my own '39 Mercedes 770K Cabriolet that was previously posted. I took photos of it as well, but I'm not thrilled with them, so I'll retake them or post as is, we'll see.
Anyway, here's the model I found when searching... 1925 Mercedes-Benz 630K Roadster by Murphy - Matrix Models, MX-51302-242

I really like it. Very clean and well proportioned automobile/model. Colour is perfect. For the most part, I only collect American cars but if I were to go after European makes, this would be my 1st choice.
Beautiful model John and great pictures.
