Monogram '32 roadster: a red-headed step-child.

Was out at the Hershey Car show for a few days. A vendor there had an earlier version of this kit that looked like it’s been in his damp basement for decades. He wanted $40 for it.  I guess he never heard of Ollie’s.

He was hoping the intrinsic value would bring that kind of money. I can imagine what the box looked(and smelled) like 🤮.  Always wanted to see Hershey 😕. Did you score anything for your 1:1s?

I spent more money on food then anything else. And with the prices that wasn't hard to do. Nothing for the 1:1's 🙁

Well, I hope you got some good pictures, Len. Is Hershey still pre-'48?

Nope, it's anything older then 25 years. So we are breaking into a new century.

 

I did get some research done.

Its unfortunate that Hershey is nolonger pre 48. I am going to one of the only pre 48 shows left around me, Tin Dusters in Quincy IL with my grandfather this weekend. I plan on taking a lot of research photos. 

If you want me to snap any photos for you I can 😁.

Elliot, I think you may have read that wrong. Hershey accepts vehicles before 48. I would say there are probably 500 pre 48 cars at the show.

Nope, I read it right. I was saying its a shame that its not ONLY pre 48. Sometimes its nice to see only pre 48 at showes and not the other stuff, just a good change of pace.
