Hmmmmmmmmm this is my first rodeo playin this game so lets try to get off to a good start shall we. Everything on the car shouts real to me except one item. The wood grain on the luggage trunk is to out of scale, my grandfather owns a saw mill and I've seen trees cut in half that were just huge and have never seen wood grain that big. Everything else looks real but is'nt anything that couldnt be recreated in scale. So I say model. I think

I think Keith has one too...but he calls his "Sweet Virginia"...

Hey Harry,
Mick said Keith had one until he smashed it into a tree at his ranch. He was smashed on Vodka running down the chickens
around the ranch and ran straight on into a eucliptius tree, when Mick got over to him, he had a bloody mouth and his only tooth was knocked out. but he was laughing and his bottle of vodka he was holding was not even broken, I don't think he spilled a drop. They took him back to the house, He rinsed his mouth out with a can of Fosters and was good to go for the concert later that night.

I think it's a model. There's something about it that says "fake" to me, but I can't exactly point out what...

I think you need one of these...

Wow, almost a 50/50 split I voted real only because of the weeds by the tire and the dirt looks way too real to be scale. The wood grain and the seat are giving me second thoughts about the decision though. Then again I'm just a noob in the world of scale models so who knows.

[Mad Slammer]

I voted real, I'm about 99% sure, BUT that 1% is really buggin me. . .

You really didn't think I'd make it that easy, did you???

[Slick]

I vote real. I can't see anything that looks scale. Voting is now 32/32.

[Harry P.]

AHA!! I was right!

There was something about it that said model........something about the whole presence of it. Very, very convincing looking though!

BTW, what kind of car was that anyway Harry?

[Harry P.]

That is a 1905 Panhard et Lavassor Phaeton.

Sounds classy, doesn't it?
