Too many models. I'm going to go with real. Look at the leather or fabric on the seats and behind the seat where the top goes down. I've never seen a model look this good. I'm saying real with this one.

MODEL!!!!!!! Take a look at the glove box----dont look real to me. Lack of pedals too. Not to mention the flat edge on the front of the seat (even though its supposed to be tuck n roll

PS May I ask ..................... What kind of mirror doesn't reflect anything??? .............. a chrome tree MODEL mirror

Yup, that mirror looks like one piece of something and chrome platted, usually the glass is pretty obviously separate from the rest off the mirror assembly. Thw woodgrain and gauges just don't look "right" to me either.

How about it? Real or model?

I have the real thing in my garage (I'm not saying this one is not real or not a model ....or not a real model), but as Bill Geary said, I see several HUGE giveaways and it's probably not fair since I have a reference in my garage.

Can't say why exactly, but I'm feeling 'model.' Pretty sure it's a larger scale than 1/24-1/25, but a model nonetheless.

Very tricky there, Harry. :P

I did play fair and voted before I found the photo. I even got it right.

Dave Morton could probably best understand why I was going crazy ;)

It's real. You'd have to be an expert to put keys in the ignition on a model car, unless this is one of those large-scale kits like 1/16, 1/12, or 1/6.

Keys CAN be put in 1/25 dashes!..............:P

If the mirror is at a certain angle, it will reflect darker images thus appearing NOT to be shiny and reflective. It look's to me like it's pointing towards the inside of the car which will be darker than outside. I'm still saying this one is real.

Almost a 50/50 split in the votes.

That means your pic is fooling a lot of people.

I might be fooled too but I say real.

I am going to agree, there is just something that's wrong with the piping on the front of the seat, just a little to straight for real leather.
