Playtoy 1/43 resin 1946 Chrysler Town and Country, made in 1982. This model was state of the art when it was released, and for a near 40 year old model, it has held up quite well. Some of the metal etched parts need to be re-secured as they have become “unglued” but otherwise no issues. Well, there is one other issue; my fumble fingers dislocated the driver’s side rear view mirror. My fingers were not designed for handling any model with a mirror or texting!

Looks pretty good, I have not seen this model before.

Yes, its by Brianza, base is signed.
Please feel free to use my photos. As I did not take photos of the base or any other views, would you want additional photos/views?
I also have or had the 53 Buick convert, and 57 Cadillac convert. I dont remember if there were others.

I always like to double-count, so the two photos above are just perfect for hobbyDB! Thanks!

Thanks for your good post, Robert. I'm not familiar with PlayToy models, but your pictures and descriptions have roused my curiosity. Well done! David H

And I like how Vitesse did the Highlander plaid upholstery on their T & C convertibles but I've never seen the Playboy versions but they look like they got the front clip the correct length that Vitesse missed on.
