To my big surprise, I stumbled upon a couple of 1:87 models of Aussie cars at a European Model Railway exhibition this weekend. These little white metal gems have been manufactured by Weico Models in Victoria.
Although they do not fit the era of my layout, which will be situated in the mid 1930s, I could not resist buying them … one never knows if they will come in handy at a later date!
For those who have never seen these cars before, they’re Holdens … on the left is starts with a 1953 Holden FJ Panel Van, then a 1953 Holden FJ Sedan and on the right the most Australian one of them all – a 1958 Holden FC Ute.
