    Skoda 105s 1982?

    Hi does anyone know if this car is made as a model in any scale?

    I would like to give my dad a birthday gift of a model car of his first car ever. There is one 1:24 diecast model, even in the same colour, but has round headlights as opposed to rectangular that his car had. Both shown on images below.
    I am not capable of modifying it myself so thought maybe I could make one... although have not made a model in 25y

    Any thoughts?

    I don't speak or read Polish, but found a link to a kit @ https://archiwum.allegro.pl/oferta/s...640612390.html

      Thank you Gary. I did come across both before. The kit still has round headlamps. The 1/43 is very close to what I want (for some reason they made the headlamps really small), but I cannot find it in pale yellow. Maybe I should attempt re-painting?
      Thank you for your effort, really appreciated.

        Repainting a 1/48th will be a lot easier than converting round to square lights at the 1/87 scale

          Ok I am back after doing some research. I decided I will not be able to make a model myself (no ready kits available) and modification of the shop-bought assembled diecast model is beyond my capability. The model is as pictured above by WhiteBox. Is anyone here who would take a challenge of modifying this model for me?
