Evanta 1959 Aston Martin

TECHNO THRILLS                      


  
You might want to try re-reading that. Indeed, the
Evanta 1959 Aston Martin 1:1 Scale Model (TBA; Auction) is just as big as the original, arriving on a parts tree that measures just over 20' x 11'. Included in this insane kit are four Aston Martin wire wheels with Dunlop race tires, a "Mota Lita" 15" wood-rimmed Aston Martin steering wheel, a pair of race seats, an aluminum gear knob and lever, a full dashboard, a replica of the LeMans trophy, and an Aston Martin cap signed by Roy Salvadori and Carroll Shelby, who drove the original to victory at the 1959 24 Hours of Le Mans.

That's safe for work, but your after-race Fantasy Date 1:1 is not.

  3. I am uncertain of the exchange rate, but whatever it is, any of those plastic fantastics would have to have been cheaper, as well as longer lasting and more useful, than Mrs. H #1.

    Not to mention having more empathy and personality.

  5. Does it fit over an older Vega frame? Or is it for a Pinto?
