I sent the pictures to a bugatti guy and he says it is definitely not one of those. I have no idea of the age or maker, but maybe the horse shoe and "RC" are clues?
Regardless, I got the car at an auction and I really like it. I will probably have to build a special shelf for it because it is pretty heavy and big.
I added a picture of the front grill. Hopefully someone can tell me what the car is from that. Thanks everyone!
I could be wrong, but it looks like one of those decorative items that have been produced in the past 10 years or so, that look like old toys or other vintage items. There's something about the patina or 'antiquing' on the guy's face that looks like that to me. It looks like it was sculpted, rather than manufactured too- vintage toys of that era were usually made of pressed metal or wood, and this looks like some sort of resin or similar molded material.
It's a cool item, but I don't think it's vintage. I can see why you would want to build a shelf for it, it would definitely add atmosphere to your home.
If you simply want the car type identified, you need to add a photo of the grille.
I think it's cool. Love the look of the driver.
