I am always surprised at how few of the car model kits out there are of cars from the 1930s and earlier. Considering the vast number of auto manufacturers there were in Europe and North America in the first part of the 20th century, you'd think there would be all sorts of untapped potential here. Instead, everything is 56 Chevys, 1950s T-Birds, 68 Mustangs, etc. The 1930s cars seem always to be the same ones (B roadsters, for example). No problem with their popularity, but I can't help wondering if a potential market is being missed here. If you look at Jay Leno's Youtubes, you see so many cool vehicles of which you might say "why isn't there a kit of that?" Just a few thoughts.
