1/18 1938 Delahaye 135M Roadster Cabriolet S/N 49150 Peter Mullin Museum

1/18 Delahaye 135M Cabriolet S/N 49150

1:18 scale – 1938 Delahaye 135M Cabriolet S/N 49150
Model made by Minichamps

This is a fantastic model, we also have one in our own collection! If you like or love flowing art deco French coachwork as much as we do, then this is a ‘must have’ type of model. This one is serial number 117 from and edition of 1002 pieces, produced in 2013 by Minichamps as part of their “Mullin Automotive Museum” line. It quite closely replicates 49150 as it was when in the Mullin Museum collection. (Sadly the Mullin Museum has closed.) The overall fit & finish is excellent, and the overall detail is great. As you can see, it comes mounted to a base featuring a simulated cobblestone surface with a plaque.

1/24 Porsche 356A Speedster All Brass Kit

1/24 Porsche 356A Speedster All Brass Kit

1/24 Porsche 356 Speedster All Brass Kit

1:24 scale – 356 Speedster DISPLAY kit – ALL brass
by Union Model

Brass model trains are quite common, but brass model automobiles are very rare, only a few manufacturers have ever produced model cars in brass.

This fantastic 1957 Porsche 356A Speedster kit was produced around 1990-1993, and marketed under three labels, Union Model Corp. of Japan, Lemaco of Germany, and Precision Classics in North America. The kits were identical except for the printed instructions and different box lids for each company. These kits were manufactured in Japan by Tenshodo. We have not found any figures on quantity, but estimate that only 500 or less were made. Each came partially assembled. The body & panels are stamped, all panels open and are already set with hinges that have been soldered in place. Many other small & large parts are also soldered together such as the assembled engine. Numerous lost wax brass castings along with machined and photo etched parts complete the package.

Quite a lot of hand work went into each kit. Note: Around 1993 a short run of just 78 of these were sold as fully built models, two colors, red and silver, marketed under the Precision Classics label. The built models when painted seemed to lose much of the charm and strong visual appeal of the raw brass kits. These kits were expensive when new at around $400 plus. The kit features operational 4-wheel independent suspension with front trailing arms and rear swing axles, opening doors, hood and trunk, removable rims fastened with five tiny lug bolts (wrench included), carpeted floor, and canvas top boot. Over 300 parts. On occasion you may find one of these, but not in such perfect unmolested condition with parts sealed in place as shipped from the factory.

1/43 Chromes Ilario Cadillac Series 62 Cabriolet convertible Jacques Saoutchik

Cadillac Series 62 ‘Saoutchik’ Cabriolet

1:43 scale – Cadillac Series 62 ‘Saoutchik’ Cabriolet, 1948
by Ilario Chromes

Jacques Saoutchik certainly was the master of outrageous art deco. Beautifully finished with superb high gloss paint, and featuring excellent detail all around including the interior. Ilario Chiera of France has been producing hand built limited edition models since 1984. Always with attention to detail and fine craftsmanship. The “Ilario Chromes” models were produced in editions of less than 200 of each model, and many were runs of 100 or less. They are rare and highly recommended true collector models.
This model comes mounted as shown to wood and leather base with an acrylic cover.

1/24 Motor City Cadillac Series 62 Cabriolet Convertible Jacques Saoutchik

Cadillac Series 62 ‘Saoutchik’

1:24 scale – 1948 Cadillac Series 62 ‘Saoutchik’ Cabriolet
by Motor City USA

Say what you will, but the real car, and this model both make one heck of a statement. The real 1:1 Cadillac is one of just two with bodies designed by Jacques Saoutchik and made in France. This rare hand built, serial numbered limited edition piece was manufactured in the mid 1990s by Motor City USA who were one of many artisan model firms that are sadly no loner in business. They primarily produced American cars in 1:43 scale, and ALL of their models were made in the USA, in California. The original master for this production run was created exclusively for Motor City by renowned British pattern maker Pete Kenna. The model is made of white metal, is 9” long, and weighs in at 4.5 Lbs. Add another 1/2 Lb. for the wood base to round up to an even 5 Lbs! It is in as new condition. Fantastic high gloss paint finish, with an abundance of bright chrome trim, and excellent detail inside and out. Motor City models are highly sought after, and ones like this rarely come up for sale.
This model is SN 251 of 450, and is mounted to its original display base.

A little history on the 1:1 car…Jaques Saoutchik is probably most notable for his flamboyant designs for Delahaye, Delage, and Talbot-Lago. After World War II Saoutchik built two custom ordered Cadillacs for the American Market. The first (the car modeled by Motor City) was finished in black over violet with black cloth soft top and matching black and violet interior. The second car was more “in your face” vibrant with a white and violet paint job featuring cain hatch work on the doors.

1/43 Porsche 911 GT-1

1:43 scale – Porsche 911 GT-1, Le Mans 1996 – diorama open view
Custom built by Pro Line Models

This super detailed Porsche scene was built sometime between 1996 and 1997 using a limited edition kit by Provence Moulage of France, who are no longer in business. Pro Line was a USA based specialty model builder. Models such as this built by Pro Line were often built as one-offs. It is believed that Pro Line only built between 1 to 4 of these pieces. Quite rare. All of the parts in this diorama are fixed/set in position in the custom case as shown. The model is in perfect as new condition, and there a substantial amount of detail to be found everywhere you look, the pictures say it all. And this piece does display beautifully!

1/24 Mercedes-Benz CLKGTR - 2 Car Set

1:24 scale – Mercedes-Benz CLK GTR set – 1997 FIA

This pair of highly detailed models was built by the late Dennis Koleber. Both the ‘Warsteiner’ and ‘Boy Girl’ cars come with personally autographed plaques by their respective drivers: Bernd Schneider and Klaus Ludwig. What can we say. Just look at the photos…. these are great highly detailed models with fully plumbed engine bays, and the interiors are also extensively detailed. The set comes with an acrylic display case which measures approximately 12” x 15”. The plaques have not been attached to the base, but we can attach them for you, or pack separately – your choice. This really is a stunning and extremely rare set.

1/8 Bugatti Type 35

1:8 scale – 1924 Bugatti Type 35 GP de Lyon
Art Collection Auto – built by J.P. Fontenelle

This limited edition hand built semi-scratch built model was introduced in the early 1970s. Made in France. Two versions were originally offered; one was a simple curbside piece, and the other was this highly detailed model with engine, and many working parts. These Bugatti Type 35 models were and still are a high water mark in the world of fine collectible models. (This particular model represents an exceedingly good value, far better than say an all resin Amalgam Type 35 model at four times the price.)
The body and most of the model is made of brass. Other components are made of machined & cast aluminum, copper, ‘Dunlop’ rubber tires, and leather. The machine turned dashboard is complete with instruments, switchgear and wired magneto. Steering & suspension function, some other small parts also function and the wheels are removable.

1/14 Ferrari 250 LM

1:14 scale – Ferrari 250 LM – HE14

This hand built model was made Italy in the early 1990’s by HE 14, also known as Enrica, or B.N.T. We believe that less than 100 of these were produced.

It is beautifully finished in high gloss red lacquer paint with stunning hand laced chrome wire wheels. The doors and front compartment panel open. Please note that though the rear body panel should open to expose the engine, it does not. It is fitted so tightly that it is doubtful it can be opened without causing some damage, so we are leaving it as is – more as a beautiful display model, and pricing it accordingly. The model comes mounted in its original display case. These models are extremely scarce today.

$950.

1/14 Ferrari 512 BB

1:14 scale – Ferrari 512 Berlinetta Boxer – HE14

Hand built in Italy by HE 14, also known as Enrica, or B.N.T. Beautifully finished, from a very limited edition produced in the early 1990’s and long sold out. The model is well detailed and features opening doors, and engine lid exposing a well detailed engine. It comes with its original wood and acrylic display case, and is in as new condition. The model comes mounted in its original display case. These models are extremely scarce today.

1/8 Willys Army Jeep

1:8 scale – 1943 Willys WW II U.S. Army Jeep & Trailer – Fine Art Models (FAM)

This rare limited edition semi-scratch built model was produced in 1992, and was the most successful of all models produced by FAM. The edition was limited to 250 individually serial numbered Jeep models, and note that only 10 Trailer models were produced. The Jeep edition sold out quickly as did the scant few trailers. According to FAM, the Jeep model was in development for more than two years, and once the prototype was completed it was then subjected to a thorough critique by the Smithsonian curatorial staff and further refined.

Fine Art Models (FAM) was a USA based firm located in Michigan, owned and operated by the late Gary Kohs (1944-2017), who was also a well known collector of automobiles, airplanes, fine art, and fine models made by some of the top model makers, which inspired him to start his firm Fine Art Models in 1990. He traveled the world and made numerous deals with model makers around the globe, contracting them to build editions for FAM. When Gary passed, the firm ceased doing business.

The FAM Jeep model is considered to be the finest model ever produced of a Jeep, and furthermore… these Jeep models are among the finest most detailed automotive models ever produced!!

The very first model from this edition is in the permanent collection of the National Museum of American History, Smithsonian Institution in Washington, D.C. All of the edition models have a brass plate on their underside: “Smithsonian National Museum Models” – see the photo of the underside of our model being offered.

The body and majority of components are made of brass, assembled with miniature scale bolts designed and made specifically for these models, and some of the panels & components are soldered together. The two windshield glass panes are exactly that – they are glass. The seat cushions are upholstered in cotton perfectly simulating canvas in 1:8 scale.

We are detail fanatics here at CMA and can tell you in all honesty that the overall detailing and list of working parts on this model are substantial and rather amazing. Here’s the list of working features, which are all to scale:

Steering via the steering wheel.
Suspension.
Removable spare tire.
Removable jerry can with removable cap – you can fill it if you want to!
Top bows to attach the canvas top.
Hinged hood (bonnet).
Under the hood is a miniature removable lubrication chart for the Jeep & Trailer and a removable grease gun.
Removable radiator cap.
Removable dipstick.
Hinged headlight brackets to allow access to work on the engine.
Hood hold down latches.
Windshield hold down latches.
Opening glove box door.
Hinged passenger seat.
Hinged rear storage compartments.
Windshield wipers pivot from side to side.
Adjustable rear view mirror.
Working side safety straps.
Removable shovel.
Removable axe.
And yes, there is a bit more….
