Seldom seen on this board, but it was once an accepted form of automotive adornment. As were tires with decorative white stripes.

It sure is beautiful. What an amazing car. I really like the two tone paint scheme you went with. Is there an engine with this kit?

Very nice '59. :sunglasse

The kit is a Jo Han probably released in 1959. The remnants of the company were purchased and this is one of the few kits that was offered a few years ago. Therefore one may come up on e-Bay occasionally. The wheel covers and tires are from Modelhaus. There is no engine and the chassis is resin.
