I found 5 oldtimer cars by Hungarian designer Tibor Nagy.

Those are wonderful. Thanks

I didn't put two and two together very well. Didn't remember the picture, anyways. $9.75 still seems quite reasonable.

The cars really look good and are from my favorite period of automobile design. The price seems very reasonable.

Has anyone purchased Tibor Nagy's book yet?

What scale are the models?

Don, I have the book and while the scale is not mentioned in it I'd put the scale at somewhere around 1/24-1/20th.

Thanks, g. The book definitely looks like a worthwhile purchase. That's a good scale for automobiles and, since it appears that the book is sent digitally, the models may be scalable to, say 1/43 or 1/50.

Yep, it is digital, and has instructions for the beginner as well as detailed construction pictures. I am very happy with the purchase and plan to build the Alfa and the Bugatti first. I'm a sucker for these old open wheeled track cars.

The site video looks good. I wonder if they would turn out anything like that in the hands of a buffoooooon like me. I would like to see pics from an average builder.
