Photos courtesy of Model was never taken out of its original packaging - just today to inspect. Below is a more detailed description of the car from : TFM has already provided us with some of the cars that the 'good guys' drive. We have fire engines and police cars from various eras and even Elliot Ness's Caddy. As a balance, we are seeing some of the cars that the 'bad guys' drove, particularly those from the 1930's gangster era. We've seen Al Capone's 1930 Cadillac and the Bonnie & Clyde 1932 Ford. This model represents the 1933 Ford Deluxe that notorious criminal John Dillinger used. As FBI's Public Enemy #1, Dillinger wanted the best car he could steal for the job of robbing banks and making quick escapes. Ford's Deluxe Sedan with its V-8 power was unfortunately ideally suited to the task.The model is wonderfully replicated in gleaming black paint and accented with a fine red dual-pinstripe. The wheels, photoetched metal, are red to beautifully contrast the body. The interior, viewed through the open suicide door, is beige with brown trim. The grille is photoetched metal. Beneath the hood is a fabulous engine. It is wired accurately, plumbed correctly and even sports the informational stickers in perfect 1:24th scale. read more
