Harry P. Posted June 29, 2015 Posted June 29, 2015 Remember... if you know the answer for sure (you know the source of the photo), don't tell us! It ruins the game for everyone else. So what do you think... real or model? The answer: REAL!
dw1603 Posted June 29, 2015 Posted June 29, 2015 Wow, today I have internet access! (I'll never take broadband for granted again) I think this is real. Regards, Dave.
horsepower Posted June 29, 2015 Posted June 29, 2015 I thought it was a model at first, but closer examination makes me feel more like real, so I'm going with real.
peter31a Posted June 30, 2015 Posted June 30, 2015 The tires have just enough weathering. I vote real as that would be hard to do in scale.
Pete J. Posted June 30, 2015 Posted June 30, 2015 Harry, you got me again. I won't say which way I voted, because that would not be right, but I got it wrong. Thought I spotted something. Well, you never really know what you don't know.
Harry P. Posted July 3, 2015 Author Posted July 3, 2015 Final vote: 26 REAL, 10 MODEL. And the answer is... REAL!
bobthehobbyguy Posted July 3, 2015 Posted July 3, 2015 For me the clue was the headlights. I always try to look for things that are difficult to get the right thickness in scale.
Pete J. Posted July 4, 2015 Posted July 4, 2015 Boy did I miss this one. What threw me off were the valve stems. I wasn't sure that they were making pneumatic tires for autos at this time. We had an old Maxwell truck frame on the farm when I was growing up and it had solid rubber tires on it. My bad!
