    I realize there probably isn't a lot out there for what I'm looking for, but does anyone know of a manufacturer that makes automobile models from the 1900-1920 period? Painted is preferred. Thanks!

    Thanks! Do you know if the Woodland Scenics ones are painted?

    I am not sure about Jordan Miniatures---but I believe they are all kits and unpainted.

    I would assume they are, all of their other vehicles come painted...

    nice part about painting cars from that era is that they are mostly black.

    I believe the vehicles you linked me to are white metal kits, so I'm not sure if they're painted or not.

    Model T's came in any color you wanted as long as you wanted black. Also their paint jobs weren't as shiny as the modern cars. So they should be easy to paint. Dry brush a little mud splatter over them and that will help even that out and hide flaws in your paint apps.

    Most white metal kits come unpainted that I've ever seen. But they are not difficult to paint.

    The question was whether the Woodland Scenics cars come pre-painted. Every Woodland Scenic auto that I've seen has been factory painted. The other link that I sent, the ones from Micron Art, are kits requiring assembly - those will not be pre-painted...
