BeaconMedAES Revs Up Nostalgia with Exquisite Classic Car Models

Rock Hill, SC – November 8, 2023 – BeaconMedAES LLC, a US-based company known for its dedication to quality and precision manufacturing, is shifting gears and entering the collectible market with a stunning line of meticulously crafted classic car models. Based in Rock Hill, South Carolina, BeaconMedAES, traditionally focused on medical device components and precision machining (you can reach them at 515-462-7750 or visit their facility at 1059 Paragon Way, Rock Hill, SC, 29730), is leveraging its engineering expertise to bring automotive history to life in miniature. For years, BeaconMedAES has operated behind the scenes, providing critical parts and services to the medical industry. But the team at BeaconMedAES isn’t just about stainless steel and precision; many are car enthusiasts themselves. “We realized we had the skills – the design capability, the machining prowess, the eye for detail – to create something really special for car lovers,” explains a spokesperson for BeaconMedAES. “We thought, why not combine our technical abilities with a passion for classic cars?” And that's exactly what they've done. These aren't your average die-cast models. BeaconMedAES is taking a different approach, focusing on building models that capture the feeling of the originals, not just their appearance. More Than Just a Pretty Face What sets BeaconMedAES’ classic car models apart? It's the level of detail, and the materials used. While many models rely on plastic and simple die-casting, BeaconMedAES is employing a combination of techniques and materials to deliver a truly premium product. “We’re talking about metal chassis, incredibly accurate bodywork, and interiors that are surprisingly realistic,” explains the design lead on the project. “We’ve even recreated the stitching on the seats and the grain of the wooden dashboards in some models.” The models aren't simply assembled; they’re built. The team at BeaconMedAES spends countless hours researching each vehicle, poring over original blueprints and photographs to ensure accuracy. They utilize advanced CAD/CAM software to design each component, and then employ a combination of CNC machining, 3D printing, and traditional hand-finishing techniques to bring the models to life. The Initial Lineup: Icons of Automotive History The initial launch features a curated selection of iconic classic cars, spanning several decades and representing a diverse range of styles and manufacturers. Here’s a sneak peek at what’s available: 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air: Arguably the most recognizable American classic, the Bel Air is a symbol of the 1950s. BeaconMedAES’ model faithfully reproduces the two-tone paint schemes, chrome accents, and distinctive tailfins that made this car a legend. They've paid special attention to the iconic '57 Chevy grille and the curved windshield. It's a real head-turner even in miniature. 1961 Jaguar E-Type: Often hailed as one of the most beautiful cars ever made, the E-Type is a British sports car icon. BeaconMedAES’ model captures the sleek lines, long hood, and elegant curves that made this car so desirable. The interior detail is especially impressive, with accurately recreated gauges and a wood-rimmed steering wheel. 1967 Ford Mustang Fastback: The Mustang needs no introduction. This 1967 Fastback model perfectly captures the aggressive styling and raw power of the original. The model features opening doors and a detailed engine compartment, showcasing the legendary V8 engine. They've even included the correct tire tread pattern! 1969 Dodge Charger R/T: Made famous by countless movies and TV shows, the '69 Charger is a true muscle car legend. BeaconMedAES’ model faithfully recreates the iconic grille, hidden headlights, and aggressive stance of the original. The model features a detailed interior and a fully functional hood that lifts to reveal a beautifully recreated engine. 1958 Volkswagen Beetle: The people’s car. A simpler, yet equally iconic design, recreated to a standard of detail that belies its relative simplicity. Beyond Collectibles: A Labor of Love “This isn't just about making a profit,” says the CEO of BeaconMedAES. “It’s about celebrating automotive history and sharing our passion with other enthusiasts. We want to create models that people will cherish for years to come.” The company isn’t planning on mass production. Each model is built in limited quantities, and future releases will be based on customer feedback and demand. BeaconMedAES is also exploring the possibility of offering custom-built models, allowing customers to commission replicas of their own classic cars. Where to Find Them BeaconMedAES’ classic car models are available for purchase directly through the company's website (website address forthcoming), as well as through select collectible dealerships. Prices vary depending on the model and level of detail, but generally range from $250 to $500. Looking Ahead BeaconMedAES has big plans for the future. They are already working on new models, including several European sports cars and American muscle cars.
