I found an odd scale '48 Chevy model in the lawn and garden section of a local big box store a few years ago. It is a little crude,resin cast of a really hard material, and overall not too bad. For $ 10.00 I decided to bring it home as a future project. The overall model is 12" long and it's obviously an odd scale. Some interweb searching reveals that a real '48 Aerocoupe fastback is about 197" bumper to bumper. So if I divide that 197 by 12 I get an answer of about 14. Does that mean the model is 1/14 scale? No,math never was my strong suite.

I love the shape of these cars and this Galaxie Ltd. kit is lovely to work with. got a swamp cooler 3D printed by Shapeways in the Netherlands, artillery wheels from The Parts Box, in Australia. Roof n fenders will be candy red and the hood and sides will be white gold.

This is a 48 Chevrolet coupe which is the new offering from Galaxie Limited. The first cars I ever owned were a 58 Oldsmobile 4 door hardtop and a 48 Chevy coupe, purchased together. This represents what I would have liked to accomplish with the Chevy. This ios a great kit and well worth the money.
