CARZOL Plastics Corp. of Montreal PQ circa 1960

Hi folks, I've been away for a bit, moving from Ontario to New Brunswick...
but I've cast my nets at the largest flea market in Canada (Sussex NB) to find a "Japanese Fishing Boat" from CP, kit # 1106, no date, no patent, no scale.... and I have never heard of this company nor the ship it has modeled... (appears to be a smallish tuna boat referred to as a clipper type ?)...
has anyone come across the company or the boat ?

Carzol was a Canadan company which released ex-Pyro kts in Canada.
Sounds lke you may have the 1/96 scale Russian Fishing Trawler or North Atlantic Fishing Trawler, which may be the same kit.
Value about $15-20.

I checked the Pyro ship listing in my old Burns guide (5th issue), and found Pyro #374 'Japanese Fishing Boat', no scale listed, 8-12 dollars.
Carzol isn't listed in Burns' ships section at all, so it could be a rare kit.

It's in the 7th Edition, pg.280. The America's Cup Racer is mentioned with a request for further information on which Pyro kits they released under the Carzol label.
I wonder if the Russian, Atlantic and Japanese fishing trawlers are the same kit or different molds?

Hello, I have come across plastic toys by this company of a car and also a car hauler with four trucks on it. Judging by the style of the trucks I would date these at '61 or '62. They are replicas of the '61 chev or gmc pickups. Each unit is marked CARZOL MADE IN CANADA but nothing else. I have been told they were in Montreal in the 60's. They are certainly rare as these are the only ones I have seen and I have been collecting toy cars and trucks for 30 years. Can't help on the boat. Any info on the company would be greatly appreciated. Rick Steer Manitoulin Island ON

It appears to be a blown in a mold solid body car with plastic spoke wheels that do turn. I actual picked up several from an old toy collector. Never seen another one.
