who made my Tucker?

[DrewCfromSC]

Scored this at a model show today. The seller didn't know a thing about it, do you? its about a 1/25 scale and has a crude flat chassis that's marked 48 Tucker with 2 metal axles and wheels that look like a mid 50s Chevy. Its a solid resin item. Thanks for any info!

Looks to me as though it was one of S C Miller's pieces . Sam Miller passed away about four years ago. he lived outside of Charlottesville Virginia . He probably was one of the original five casters in the business. I have one myself ..............

Thanks for this info. Its pretty crude but looks cool! Not sure what to do with it, so its a shelf sitter for now.

Yes , this is a score . As S.C. Miller was one of the original 5 Casters . Slush Cast . Some Modelers have had the talent to thin these down in the right places to make these Curbside with Interiors and glass . Good purchase of a piece of History . S.C. Miller was a prolific Caster . I just regret not haveing more than one of his works . Thanx ..

Doesnt look very exciting to me. Looks like a TKM casting, which i stay clear of.

There has been one of those for sale on ebay for a long while ,maybe years. Currently asking $199, it was much higher in the past.

I had been wondering who had cast it, thought it was too nice for TKM. I would just leave it on display as is. If you want to build one get a Modelhaus kit.
