In our bi-monthly Dutch NAMAC-magazine Mr. van den Acker posted a small article about a probably 1:43-scale modelcar.

It has HUBLEY USA stamped in the roof.

He was wondering who could tell what carbrand this represents.

Any one ?

Hubley USA

It looks like an amalgam of several cars. Chris's Lincoln/Zephyr and the sides, to me, somewhat resemble a Pierce Arrow.

It sure looks pretty cool ! Back then, I believe people with the money to spend might buy a new engine and chassis and then have it custom-bodied for their use. I think the body maker Darrin and others did custom work like this.
