1955 Renault 4 CV

[Modelbuilder Mark]

Box stock. The side glass presents some fit challenges, as does the side marker lights(too big) but overall a nice little kit. Cobra Colors from old stock I had on hand, their clear as well. The wheels were a pain to mask but I think it was worth the three attempts. LOL

[S. Svendsen]

That's a cool little car.

[Jim Gibbons]

REALLY nice! I have the 1/43 version, but have to think about building it in this scale. The wheels were worth the effort.

[Erik Smith]

Great looking model. Those Heller kits aren't the easiest to work on.

[peekay]

Turned out REALLY nice!

[Greg Cullinan]

A beauty.

[PappyD340]

[Chris White]

[Tom99]

I like it!!

[slusher]

Great looking little model...

[Tom Geiger]

Whoa! I'm really liking your finished model! I do have the police version with the cut down doors but I'll have to keep an eye out of the regular version to build one of those Saigon taxi cabs!

Nice work Mark!

[Modelbuilder Mark]

Thanks everyone!

Jim, I really like the wheels. If I were to do another kit, I would build it with more details.I really like these wheels, and I would put the bolts on that hold the outer wheels.

Tom, I look forward to seeing yours when you build it.

[ChrisR]

this is really cool. nice job.

[bbowser]

Great model, and the wheels were worth it!

[unclescott58]

Very nice. Is this the Heller kit, as Erik Smith suggested? And if not, what what scale is it? Again, you did a very nice job. Unusual model, one that in the US at least, is not see very often. I like it.

KOOL!!!!!

[Modelbuilder Mark]

Thanks again everyone!

Yes Scott, this is the Heller Kit.

Beautiful model of a classic European post-war car. Your colour choice is spot-on for the European taste of those days.

Nice to see one of those so well built.

Here they had a nickname "hot ass" because of the rear engine.

They were replaced here by the Renault Dauphine, and that one had another funny nickname: Leite Glória (Glory Milk) that was a brand of powder milk that was advertised as easy to break, in the sense it would easy to mix it with water. The car was also "easy to break"

Great Build Mark!
