horsepower Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 I have to go along with the masses on this one, on close examination it appears to have some strange paint build-up alont the rear of the front fender, & the front of the door. Model!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
horsepower Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 /addendum: still a model, die-cast, mis alignment on the doors could confuse some, but the window in the door seals it, the real car has a chrome outer frame, this one doesn't.

horsepower Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 I went with real on this one.I had a '62. I am probably wrong!!! Oh well!!! And that tips you how? there is a lot of difference between the '61-'62 models & this '57 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry P. Posted June 24, 2011 Author Share Posted June 24, 2011 You guys were too smart this time! Final vote: 10 REAL, 48 Model... and it is a model. A 1/6 scale diecast from Highway 61. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
george 53 Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 Cool, Harry. You get me with the REAL ones, I don't know where you come up with them, but these models, with the way you can mess with the backgrounds an stuff, you can catch me occasionally! I got this one though. :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrObsessive Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 I've seen this one before, but even if I hadn't-----the windshield frame curvature and the grille teeth were dead giveaways for me. Now if you've got $700 to spend......she's all yours! Mind you, there is no hardtop, and there's no folding top like Danbury's excellent 1/12 '56. That's a LOT of coin to be missing those two items!

This model isn't even worth half the asking price, IMO. DM's '56, their '57 Bel Air and their classic Cadillac roadster, while half the size of this model, have twice the detail, if not more... and they cost a lot less.

raymanz Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 I'm going with Real-just a hunch. I,need to get my eye's checked I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
W-409 Posted June 29, 2011 Share Posted June 29, 2011 Wow, it was really a model! I didn't think, that it would be that big, I was thinking just 1/24 or 1/25 and 1/16 scale... But great job bulding that, it looks very autentic, that's why I voted REAL! Better luck next time, I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
