1929 Ford Model 'A' Roadster Dry Lakes Racer - Limited Edition 1 of 2500 - The "Origins of Speed" collection features 1/18th scale die cast 1929 Ford Model A roadster bodies on 1932 Ford frames. Based on the first "hot rods" that originated out of southern California in the mid-1930's through the late 1940's, this limited series of eight releases faithfully reproduce the early days of automotive high performance.

All typical and highly accurate for the time period. Includes stainless steel "timing tag" and 8-page historical booklet. Highway 61 Collectibles
