THIS MODEL IS ALSO A KIT OF SORTS
. NO MAJOR WORK IS REQUIRED, BUT, IT OFFERS THE
YOUNGSTERS A CHANCE TO TEST THEIR SKILLS WITH WHEEL INSTALLATION AND TIRE REPAIR
/REPLACEMENT. THIS IS ONE OF THOSE TOYS THAT DOES REQUIRE SOME IMAGINATION! THIS CONCEPT OF IMAGINATION HAS LOST IT'S WAY, THUS CREATING A LARGE
COLLECTIBLES MARKET FOR ITEMS OF THIS
CALIBER
.
IN ADDITION TO THE BARE METAL STUDIO CLOCKWORK CAR HERE, YOU WILL ALSO RECEIVE A BEAUTIFUL STAINLESS STEEL HIP FLASK WITH CUSTOM ETCHING ON THE FRONT SIDE.
I HAVE HAD THIS STASHED AWAY WITH A FEW HUNDRED (TO THOUSANDS) OR SO ADDITIONAL MODELS THAT I HAVE COLLECTED OVER THE PAST 5 DECADES OR SO.
I HAVE
HAD
THIS SCHUCO
CLASSIC EDITION SET
IN MY POSSESSION
SINCE NEW AND
NOW AND I HAVE DECIDED TO START SELLING OFF MY COLLECTION OF ANTIQUE/VINTAGE MODELS, TRAINS, PLANES, BOATS, ECT.....
HAVING HUNDREDS OF MODEL CARS TO CHOOSE FROM, MOSTLY PORSCHE AND CORVETTES, I HAVE DECIDED TO START LISTING SOME OF THESE HERE ON E-BAY. 95% OF THESE ARE ONE-OF-A-KINDS LISTINGS AND I WILL DO MY BEST TO SHOW YOU AN ARRAY OF PICTURES AND DESCRIBE THEM TO THE BEST OF MY ABILITY. THIS RARE, TIN BARE METAL SCHUCO LIMITED EDITION 1998 SET WITH ALL OF THE ORIGINAL ACCESSORIES IS NO EXCEPTION TO THIS RULE
!
AS YOU CAN SEE THE ORIGINAL BOX IS HERE AND IN
EXCELLENT
CONDITION/SHAPE. THE ORIGINAL SLEEVE IS ALSO PRESENT AND DOES HAVE SOME VERY SMALL SIGNS OF SHELF WEAR.
THE GRAPHICS ARE ALL CLEAR AND FULLY
LEGIBLE
AND IN M
ULTI
-
LANGUAGES.
THE INSIDE IS CUSTOM DESIGNED/MADE AND HOLDS 4 WHEELS WITH TIRES MOUNTED, 4 EXTRA TIRES, 3 HAND TOOLS, THE CLOCKWORK WINDING CRANK (KEY), VEHICLE JACK (ATTACHED TO THIS IS THE NUT TO HOLD IN THE STEERING WHEEL + 1 EXTRA NUT), STEERING WHEEL, CENTER CAPS, VEHICLE, STAINLESS FLASK, DIRECTIONS FOR CARE FOR STAINLESS STEEL FLASK. YOU ALSO HAVE THE O
RIGINAL
"ZERTIFIKAT" STATING THIS SET/KIT WAS MADE IN CALENDAR YEAR 1998 AND HAS BEEN LIMITED TO ONLY 1998 EXAMPLES AND THE MAIN INSTRUCTIONS AS TO HOW TO BUILD THIS MODEL.
SCHUCO SUPPLIES YOU WITH AN OLD STYLE JACK O
R
LIFT, THAT USES BODY WEIGHT AS LEVERAGE TO LIFT
THE CAR
OF THE GROUND. HERE YOU
R
FINGER WILL
SUFFICE
! IN ADDITION TO THE JACK, YOU HAVE A DOUBLE END
WRENCH WHICH WILL RELEASE THE
WHEE
LS FROM THE CAR (OR PLACE THEM ON IT). THE
SINGLE ENDED
WRENCH IS DESIGNED TO REMOVE THE TIRES FROM THE WHEELS.
YOU NEED TO PLACE THE STEERING WHEEL INTO PLACE AND HERE YOU USE THE OTHER SIDE OF THE
DOUBLE
WRENCH TO
ACCOMPLISH THIS
TASK
. ONCE AGAIN, THE SM
ALL NUT IS IN THE SEALED BAG WITH THE STEERING WHEEL, YOU ALSO HAVE AN EXTRA NUT (IN CASE YOU MISPLACE ONE) WHICH IS AFFIXED TO THE JACK.
THIS MODEL HAS A VERY UNIQUE CLOCKWORK MOTOR. YOU CAN USE THE COOL CRANK TO WIN
D THE MOTOR O
R SIMPLY PUSH DOWN ON THE REAR END AND ROLL IT FORWARD. WHEN YOU RELEASE THE PRESSURE, IT WILL TAKE OFF IN A FORWARD DIRECTION. BUT, YOU CAN ALSO USE THIS AS A FREE ROLL
ING MODEL AS WELL! SCHUCO HAS A
DESIGNED IT SO NO DAMAGE WILL HAPPEN TO THE CLOCKWORK MO
TOR IF YOU DECIDE TO JUST PUSH IT OR PULL IT AROUND.
AS I MENTIONED ABOVE, THIS MODEL DOES NEED SOME SIMPLY ASSEMBLY AND WHEN YOU DONE, YOU CAN EASILY BREAK
THIS MODEL
DOWN AND PLACE ALL OF THE
COMPONENTS
B
ACK I
NTO THERE ORIGINAL PLACES
.... UNTIL NEXT TIME
! THIS EXAMPLE HAS NEVER BEEN ASSEMBLED!
PLEAS
E NOTE, THAT YOU MIGHT FIND SOME
LIGHT EVIDENCE OF WEAR ON THE MODEL AS IT HAS BEEN MOVED AROUND
FROM PLACE TO PLACE. AS MENTIONED ABOVE, IT HAS NEVER BEEN ASSE
MBLED OR USED, BUT BOX RASH IS A COMMON THREAT WITH NOS ITEMS! EVEN THOUGH I SEE NO CONCERNS, I MUST POINT THIS OUT ... JUST IN CASE YOU DO!
I TAKE PRIDE IN MY MODELS THAT I OFFER HERE IN THE E-BAY WORLD. I DO HAVE OPTIONS AND I CHOOSE TO OFFER ONLY THE VERY FINEST THAT I HAVE AVAILABLE. I TEST EVERYTHING PRIOR TO LISTING THEM AND ONCE AGAIN PRIOR TO SENDING THEM OFF. I DO THIS SO WE WILL BOTH BE VERY HAPPY WITH THE END RESULT, IT'S THE ONLY WAY I DO THINGS! ON VERY RARE
OCCASIONS

THIS IS A RELATIVELY NEW STORE FOR ME HERE ON EBAY, BUT, I COME WITH A WELL OILED AND POLISHED TRACK RECORD! I AM CURRENTLY (NOT ON THIS ACCOUNT ... YET!!) A GOLD T/RATED P~SELLER WITH OVER 8 YEARS OF THIS STATUS BACKING ME. I SPECIALIZE IN PRIMARILY THE AUTOMOTIVE FIELD AND I CONCENTRATE WITH/ON PORSCHE, BENTLEY, AUDI AND "
PORSCHE DESIGN

SCHUCO CLASSIC EDITION 1998

FOR MY INTERNATIONAL SHIPMENTS, THIS WILL BE SENT VIA EBAY'S "GLOBAL SHIPPING PROGRAM" (GSP). IF YOU AS AN INTERNATIONAL BUYER HAVE ANY ISSUES WITH USING THIS "PROGRAM" PLEASE READ THE VERY BOTTOM OF THIS SECTION. UNFORTUNATELY, IN THE PAST I HAVE HAD SOME RUN~INS WITH SOME SCRUPULOUS BUYERS WHO, BY THEIR VERY NATURE, DO NOT PLAY WELL WITH OTHERS AND MAKE UP THE RULES AS THEY GO ALONG. BY UTILIZING EBAY'S GSP, IT HAS CERTAIN BENEFITS AND DOES OFFER SOME PROTECTION TO "WE THE SELLERS" FROM FOLKS WITH THIS ATTITUDE/OUTLOOK.
PLEASE NOTE THAT I WILL HAVE TO INSURE THIS PARCEL FOR ITS SELLING PRICE. AS SUCH, IT MUST BE DECLARED FOR ITS SELLING VALUE. YOU CAN NOT DECLARE AN ITEM FOR .00 AND THEN TURN AROUND AND INSURE IT FOR 0.00, THIS IS SIMPLY JUST NOT POSSIBLE. HERE, I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY TAXES, IMPORT FEES, DUTIES OR ASSESSMENTS WHICH MIGHT BE LEVIED OR ACCESSED FROM ANY FOREIGN GOVERNMENT AT THE TIME OF, OR PRIOR TO THE, DELIVERY HEREOF. SO PLEASE BE PREPARED FOR THIS ON YOUR END!
IF YOU HAV
E ANY PROBLEM WITH THIS, I STRONGLY SUGGEST THAT YOU PASS ON THIS AS I DO NOT NEED ANOTHER INTERNATIONAL BUYER WHO DOES NOT TAKE THE TIME TO READ AND UNDERSTAND THIS, BUT, YET TAKES THE TIME TO LEAVE BADLY PLACED FEEDBACK DU
E TO THEIR IGNORA
NCE!
AS MENTIONED ABOVE, THIS IS A NEW AREA FOR ME (HERE ON E-BAY) AND I DO TRY MY BEST TO DO AS GOOD AS I CAN. THIS HAS BECOME A FULL TIME BUSINESS FOR ME AND I REALLY ENJOY DOING IT. I WILL CONTINUE TO DO SO TILL IT BECOMES A BURDEN AND I CAN NO LONGER ENJOY IT. I WILL BE ADDING TO THIS STORE WEEKLY (OR TRYING TO) AND HOPEFULLY YOU WILL SEE THAT I DO EXACTLY WHAT I SAY AND DO SO IN A VERY TIMELY FASHION.
THIS WILL BE OFFERED IN THE BUY-IT-NOW FORMAT AND THIS IS A ONE-OF-A-KIND OFFERING BY ME.
IT IS MY INTENTION TO LIST ONE OR TWO DIFFERENT MODELS EACH AND EVERY DAY (IF AT ALL POSSIBLE), OR UNTIL SUCH A TIME WHEN I GET BURNT OUT FROM DOING SO. IT MIGHT BEHOOVE YOU TO CHECK IN WITH ME OFTEN AS YOU'LL NEVER KNOW WHEN AND IF I WILL OFFER THAT SPECIAL SOMETHING THAT WILL ROUND OUT OR COMPLETE YOUR COLLECTION!
THIS IS WHERE I THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME IN READING ALL OF THE ABOVE.
I HAVE JUST ADDED THE "STORE" FEATURE THAT E-BAY OFFERS WE SELLERS TO USE (AT A FEE OF COURSE) AND THIS IS TO ASSIST YOU, THE BUYER, TO VIEW ALL OF MY OFFERINGS. IN ORDER TO VIEW MY LISTINGS IN A CONCISE AND ORDERLY FASHION, ALL YOU NEED DO IS TO LOCATE THAT SMALL "
