Unusual Fiat 124

[kev131]

This is a very strange Fiat 124 - Can anyone identify what it is that makes if different...? And it's for sale at ?10,000.

Looks like a model

perfectly normal 124 apart from the fact it seems to be a 1/12 model

Yes actually - Have you seen it before...?

As a collector for Fiat model cars I think this is amazing but I'll be waiting until I win the lottery before bidding for it.

actually, i assembled couple hundred 1/72 and 1/48 model airplanes when i was much younger and it doesn't suprise me that much. thinking about detail of models available 20 years ago, this doesn't suprise me too much.

Yes but 10000

if it's hand made, and not from kit, than it's a work of art and he can ask any price he wants.
does he get it, it's a whole diferent story.

i tried making a model from scratch and this is best one made.

(lighter is there for size reference)

now this 124 is WAY WAY better. ammount of working hour gone into it is not smaller that a real car. waste of time? depends on your point of view. i made this one when i was teenager and moved on to real thing later...

I too like the 1:1 scale better It's a lot more fun

Pocher made some brilliant big scale models...

I suppose if you do not have the storage space for each car in 1:1 scale these 1:16 models get you near it
