Fleetline Deluxe 1952 2 Door Hatchback

   
 

Scale 1/43 - Resin Hand Built By RECORD - Made in France

RECORD made various resin kit versions of the 1952 Chevrolet and strange but true, the finished models were actually cheaper than the kits! The casting is good and there is a lot of scope here for the collector who wishes to super detail his models.

The  'Fastback' body style was losing favour by the early 1950's and this was the last such offering from Chevrolet.

'Chevys' built in 1952 had poor chrome plating due to shortages of nickel because of the demand for this material for the war effort and civilian car production was eventually cut because of the Korean War.
