I am only trying to show models that are rare and hard to find.

1942 Chrysler - handmade using Solido or Vitesse pieces. No idea who made it.

Chevrolet Blazer - another caricature HV Mod piece. Nevertheless, it's modelling history.

Love the 1942 Chrysler. The Blazer, well, it is interesting. Who was HV Mod?

A German or a Swiss named Hans Voight, if I remember correctly. I saw about 10 different models.

Never saw a US model made by BBR ... must been from a long while back ?

Poor deprived fellow. I don't think he ever saw a car in person.
I am a big fan of toy cars and can overlook lack of precise details. But those are even too far out for me. I will admit I own one of the Sevilles though.

Yes, their Styling brand goes a while back. There were a few variations of the Lincoln.

The '50 Buick hardtop is actually a better rendition than the Solido rendition as PM corrected the misshapen roof.
