Hi, i purchased the autoart ford expedition himalaya a couple months ago and today purchesed the utmodels ford expedition. i noticed that many body panels on the interior and exterior and overall shape of the car look very similar. even though autoart and utmodels are different companies did they share parts? does anyone know that? it's just that pretty much the whole dashboard doorpanels and center consols look the same (except in a different color)

I thought AutoArt owns UT models and Gate? I am unsure tho. Pics for comparison.

too lazy to take pics lol but i noticed on the chassis on both cars the screws are located in the same place, they both say crafted in china in the same place and the name of the car are in the same place. the manufacter (autoart and utmodels) are also located in the same place all on the chassis. so i think it may be the same mold?...

UT Models was bought by Gateway Global (AutoArt) which had then just become AutoArt. A good example is to compare an AutoArt Lincoln Navigator to the UT Models Expedition.
