The Daimler company created the first practical gasoline powered automobile in 1886 when everyone else was still using steam power.

Molded in green, black, dark brown, chrome plate and brass plate. Never started and the parts are still in the internal factory sealed bags and includes instructions. This is part of an incredible series of very large 1/16 scale automobile kits produced by Bandai which are very well detailed inside and out even by today's standards. Thankfully, Entex reissued them in the USA in the 1970s which has made them much more available. The Japan issues are rare and they were mainly available in that country, through certain west-coast mail order hobby shops and US Military PX stores.

Sealsmodel Mikasa Pre-Dreadnought Battleship, 1/700, SMP0013800
Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: Exc
$34
Very highly detailed and finely molded waterline model. Never started and inventoried complete with all parts and includes decals and instructions. Mikasa was the only ship of her class and took part in the Russo-Japanese war. In the late 1890s the Japanese shipyards were not quite yet ready for such a project, so the Navy contracted with Vickers in Great Britain to build this ship, which is actually a highly modified Formidable class. Mikasa saw a great amount of action at Port Arthur and the Battle of the Yellow Sea. She was preserved as a museum ship in 1923. Mikasa suffered from neglect during and after WWII, but was restored to her former glory in the 1950s after a campaign led by the Japan Times and Admiral Chester Nimitz. The Mikasa is the only surviving pre-dreadnought in the world.
