Obs.   # 3893 of my 1/43 collection is an important model in any Opel modelcar collection . It was bought on Ebay from Mr Cornelis Hoogstad , " Mr Hostaro " as he told me in an e-mail . I've bought all versions of the never realesed Hostaro Olympia Rekord 1953 . All models were built by Mr Hoogstad .
In the base there is the  " id " , we found engraved " Hostaro " , " Olympia Rekord " and " Made in France " . I didn't ask Mr. Hoogstad but I think these models are related to those poor finish but expensive Leader models sold in the 1990's .

This afternoon I will build up (finish) the cabriolet version.
There are only a very few persons that will own a really HOSTARO "ready built economic series". 
I built 6 of them.
Greetings.
