TROL

Found the following pictures on Ebay a while ago, who knows more about the manufacturer of these kits ? 
Where were they made ? Were there more models ? And are they 1/87 as they were advertized ?

December 2008
- Heinz-Hartmut Graf sent us the following additional information, although not about this specific series of models it is certainly a welcome addition: 
'This is a Brazilian manufacturer. Two different series are known: At first there have been some simple plastic cars (in Germany called "Groschenautos", we may say penny models). Three different versions of a 1959 US-Ford are known: Sedan, Station Wagon, Pickup. The bodies are crude and an interior is missing. The following models have been much better: 1960 Plymouth Valiant, Pontiac Tempest and Ford Falcon. As far as I know these models have been produced in the US and were later made by TROL in Brazil.'

Which leads us to a new question...  who know more about these two series of models ?
