Tekno 419

The Tekno Ford Taunus - FK1000. 85mm long. The construction of this ‘Ford FK 1000’ seems somewhat mysterious; it is divided into three main sections: a bottom section, a middle section (excluding the cabin red-interior and clear-windows) and a top section, which was very unusual for a Tekno model. Was this done to make the paintwork more efficient and much cheaper? The headlights are shiny rivets. The car has a separate sheet steel radiator grille, which is clamped in place. It is noteworthy that there are two long supports for rivets on the inside rear and another support with an ⅛-inch thread on the front, which combination does not really make sense. The windows, including the partition between the cab and the cargo area, consist of two connected parts and are complex in design. The type of wheels used on this car consists of a metal hubcap and an inner rim. The stickers on this Ford are often of poor quality and come off, with the unfortunate result that ......... But on the FK 1000, the engravings are incredibly accurate compared to the real car! The original price was Dkr 3,95 . It was finished in white & cream & red at 1:50 scale. Released as Tekno 419 in 1957 withdrawn as Tekno 419 in 1964.
