About product

Renault Taxi Type AG 1:24 — a Heller kit

A plastic kit of the historic Renault Type AG automobile in its taxicab version, in 1:24 scale. The manufacturer is the French brand Heller. The model is supplied unassembled and unpainted; the number of parts and the range of decals are stated on the manufacturer's packaging.

The real subject

The Renault Type AG was a light commercial vehicle of the early 20th century that found wide use as a Paris taxicab. It had the typical layout of its day: a tall ladder frame, a two-cylinder engine with the radiator placed behind it, an open driver's position and an enclosed passenger compartment. Vehicles of this type are remembered mainly for the use of Paris taxicabs to move soldiers to the Marne in the fall of 1914. They remain among the best known European automobiles of the veteran era.

Building and painting tips

With a car of the veteran era everything stands or falls on the surface. It pays to spray the body over a smooth base and finish it with a gloss coat, while the frame, the fenders and the chassis can take a semi-gloss or even a matte finish so that a contrast appears. Paint the wheels with their thin felloes and spokes separately from the tires; do not make the rubber black, go for a dark gray instead. The small brass and nickel-plated details of the lamps and the radiator stand out once you degrease them and brush on a metallic paint at the end. It is practical to finish the interior and the seats before the body is closed up.

Who the model is for

  • collectors of historic and veteran automobiles
  • modelers who enjoy fine detail and metallic effects
  • builders of automotive display cases in 1:24 scale
  • anyone interested in French automotive history

The model is supplied unassembled and unpainted. Glue, paints and accessories are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

It is a classic plastic kit. It is supplied unassembled and unpainted, and glue and paints are not included in the package.

A less experienced modeler can manage it, but the result depends a great deal on patience with the small parts of the chassis, the wheels and the lamps.

The range of decals and markings is stated by the manufacturer on the box.

A contrast between a glossy body and a more matte frame and chassis works well. Choose a dark gray for the tires rather than black.
