Description
c1980's British Roadace Replica 50's-60's Racecar model collection. No<br>detectable issues or wear. Average Wood base measures 2 5/8" x 1 3/8", car<br>approx 1 5/8 or 40mm long. Selling the Exact 9 cars shown. I photographed one<br>individually with the intention of listing individually but I figured I would<br>offer them as a group for a better price. These are all quite rare as they were<br>not mass produced, historically they tend to average $125-$200 each. If I were<br>to split up this group I would want towards the higher end for just one but<br>could potentially work a deal on several. I'll be offering other makes and<br>models separately, these are really fantastic.<br><br>Roadace Replicas were made by hand in Mannamead, Plymouth, England in the 1970s<br>to 1990s. Principals were A. K. Dolton and B. E. Dolton. Principal subjects have<br>been sports and GT cars, sports racing cars, and Formula 1 racing cars.<br><br>Models were cast in resin and individually painted by hand, including such<br>details as hood louvers, aperture lines, and spokes on wire wheels. Plastic was<br>used for flat windscreens and occasionally metal was formed and used for details<br>like cycle-type fenders. Most are in a scale of 1/100 though, incredibly, some<br>are even smaller.
