UGears Dream Cabriolet VM-05 - mechanical model kit

Description

At Ugears, we love great design, so how could our crack team of designers and engineers possibly miss the chance to contribute a stylish automotive addition to such a visually interesting period? Take a trip down memory lane and feel a part of the fabulous '50s era with the ingenious Dream Cabriolet VM-05 from Ugears. Imagine it's Friday afternoon and you've just come home from a hard week at school. You spend a pleasant hour cleaning and polishing the chrome on your dream car before calling your best girl for a date. You pick her up—she looks so happy climbing into your Cabriolet—then you drive to the diner, revving your V-8 engine to announce your arrival as the other kids' jaws drop with envy. The waitress wheels over on roller skates to the driver's side window and takes your usual order: two burgers (hold the onions), fries, and rootbeer shakes. Now it's off to the drive-in movie, to meet up with friends and see the latest James Dean film (or at least some of it!). You're young, but somehow you know, life just doesn't get better than this.

The Dream Cabriolet VM-05 model is equipped with a durable rubber-band motor that powers the mechanism and drives the car. The Cabriolet can go forward or back. We've also included idle mode, to ensure you can take a close look at the beautiful eight-cylinder V configuration engine in operation. In this mode, your Cabriolet will stay still, letting you look under the hood to appreciate the beauty of the eight pistons moving in synch. To set your vehicle in motion, simply pull the transmission lever on the steering column, just like you would in a real car. Both front and rear wheels of the model have suspension to make this ride dreamily smooth. Use the steering wheel to move the front axle and send the Dream Cabriolet in the direction you choose.

This highly-detailed, vintage DIY wooden model car is made of high-grade wood and has everything you need for assembly included in the kit. No glue or special tools are required. Just push the pieces out of their precision laser-cut boards and snap them together to assemble the vehicle. Find your favorite oldies radio station, one that plays Bill Haley & His Comets, the Spinners, Drifters or Coasters (all good band names when building a model car!), and settle in for a pleasant afternoon working on your Dream Cabriolet (estimated time of assembly: 13 hours). Like all Ugears 3D puzzles and DIY models, the Cabriolet comes with step-by-step, full-color, easy to follow instructions in 11 languages (English, German, Ukrainian, French, Polish, Spanish, Russian, Japan, Italian, Chinese and Korean). If you break a part during assembly, just let our customer service team know. Replacement parts are free, as part of our overall commitment to customer service.
