Many car models were made at the same time by different diecast companies. One such example is the Chevrolet Corviar, which in the 1960s was produced by, among others, Corgi, Lonestar and Dinky. In today's video I would like to show the same model in two different versions. Corgi certainly sold more units of its model than Lone Star. The scale of the models varies. Corgi produced its Chevrolet on a scale of 1:43, while the Lonestar company produced a Chevrolet on a scale of 1:50. The Corgi model seems to be better refined. It has an opening engine cover at the rear and a sunblind on the rear window. I don't really like the wheels used by the manufacturer in the Lone Star model. I ignore the white tires, but it also seems to me that the diameter of these tires is too large in relation to the dimensions of the car. I refurbished both models, equipping them with copies of the original boxes in which they were packed. Thank you for watching the video, I publish car repair videos on Tuesdays and Saturdays. You can turn on subtitles in your language with commentary on the activity in the video.
