Collectors, check this out! Up for sale is a rare 1956 Revell 1:32 Model Kit for the 1955 Buick Riviera with a complete pair of hard-to-find figurines! It is a highly sought-after collector\'s item for automotive enthusiasts and collectors of antique toys. This partially assembled kit features a stock blue color for the molded plastic parts as well as chromed plastic pieces. This model kit was originally advertised for an advanced skill level, adding to its appeal as a nostalgic piece of automotive history. This particular model kit is a rare find as Revell’s 1955 and 1956 release of this model kit are among the only known kits to feature the specific body style of the industry’s first four-door pillarless hardtop - the Buick Riviera. The plastic material and detailed craftsmanship by Revell make this model a valuable addition to any collection of vintage automotive models!
*PLEASE NOTE: This is NOT a 100% complete model kit and is sold AS IS pictured through the listing. From what I can tell, most of the original pieces are included, although most have been removed from the original plastic webbing and some of them have been hand-painted (such as the figurines, tires, and engine). The clear plastic windshield and other clear plastic “glass” pieces are missing and remain the most noticeable missing pieces, although a trained eye may spot other missing parts. This kit has been partially assembled, notably the engine in the bay although there may be other assembled parts. PLEASE reference included pictures for any remaining details, as the two halves of the model box, model pieces, and instructions shown in the pictures will be included in the sale.
