Description
Did you know the age of mass-produced cars also heralded the age of mass car theft? With no way to lock open cabs, easily hot-wired transmissions, and no readily identifiable individual markings or serial numbers, mass-produced cars were an attractive target for thieves. Moreover, cars gave criminals an easy way to transport stolen goods or make a quick getaway after a bank robbery. During Prohibition in the United States (1920-33), many a car had a false undercarriage installed for concealing bootleg liquor! In fact, the rise and development of the FBI tracks with the rise and evolution of mass-produced automobiles.
The Retro Car UGR-T wooden model consists of 337 parts, is rated "advanced" level, and promises 7+ hours of enjoyable assembly time. No glue or other tools are required to assemble this attractive DIY wooden model—everything you need comes right in the box. Parts are carefully laser pre-cut into plywood boards, from which they are easily removed and connected to each other.
