Pics---MAE 1939 McLaughlin Buick 1/43
Here are 2 more MAE models. It's amazing how much more accurate they are than the 61 Chryslers and 59 Cadillacs I showed a few days ago. You'd hardly think they were done by the same company.
I have two of these. Both were damaged and missing parts. One had the windshield frame squashed totally flat and the other was bent. I do not have either plaque that goes at the top center of the windshield
The top up version is much harder to find.

That is a beautiful model for sure. I have that on my wish list.

I'd like to find a top up version some day. They also did a few other very nice models.

I’m anxious to see what you’ve done with an MAE 1940 Cadillac Sixty Special.

David, I'd be happy to show you but alas, I do not have one--yet. I do have a few other MAE models that I will get around to posting.

This is a nice car and looks like it can reach Brooklin quality
