I love car models, and I love disassembling car models even more! This is the fifty-first episode of "Love Car Models"! In this issue, we dismantled an old "Highway" 61; although we don't know much about these old American "muscles", we do not delay our love for this kind of car culture:

The model comes from ( The Highway 61 brand, which we believe to be in its "heyday"; 1:18 scale alloy fully open process car model; the model is 1957 Chevy 150 Utility Sedan "Multi-Purpose Sedan" - the name is very Boring. Chevrolet One-Fifty (or 150) refers to a sedan product designed and produced by the American automobile manufacturer Chevrolet from 1953 to 1957. "150" is taken from the product serial number 1500 and shortened by one digit. It is deeply loved by the police. , governments, small entrepreneurs and racing drivers.
The 150? is not a cheap car. Even the ashtray, cigarette lighter and vanity mirror are optional. Compared with the "Two-Ten" or "Bel" Air which are positioned as mid-level cars, One-Fifty? seems to have no value for money. The two-door Utility Sedan adopts a lightweight design and is equipped with a 283 CI fuel-injected small-block V8 engine - which makes it popular among racing drivers. Highway 61 faithfully restores the "Black Widow" model launched in 1957, and its black/white paint is its characteristic.
It is very reliable to leave such a "red neck" car to Highway 61! The brand's product style can be seen from the model's design and detailed craftsmanship. The simple structure hides the model designer's elegance and care. Back then, American muscle car models represented by Ertl, Highway 61, etc., refreshed the collection views of many players, including me, with their "hinged hoods".
The independent structure of the engine model, the transmission shaft that links the rear wheels, and the alloy structural parts that are not stingy (even rusted due to time)...? This is called "alloy" complete Start the process! Nowadays, Highway 61 has changed hands and has been restarted, but it is hard to see its heyday again... Just like the online forums we used to frequently browse... As we dismantled it, we also discovered some things that were hard to see when playing with it... What are the specific details you paid attention to? Please watch the video part of this article.
This article is the synopsis and annotations of the fifty-one episodes of "Love Car Models". Please watch the video for the specific content. I hope it will be helpful to your collection selection and playing experience. Finally, I wish you a bright mind and happy modeling!
