Is this the guy that used cell phone pics?

I've not bought anything from him, but here is his page with his items and one can judge for themselves.

Some interesting things he has there............

Yep  I have. I bought the Impala wagon Not to bad of a casting just lacking some detail in a few places. (IE No rear tail gate vents that the 72 would have had. But at least the hood opens!

The resin wagon non wood grain is the one I bought from this vendor while the other was bought from a different seller

I am not sure if the 69 Chevelle wagon I got several years ago was from this same seller. But it was from Ebay. It is a nice casting I have actually turned mine into a Buick Sportwagon. using panels from the Monogram GSX kit. still haven't finished it maybe some century.

Look hard at the pictures. Rick has done a lot of work on the model, and while they are not of Modelhaus quality, the subject matter is interesting.  If that is acceptable to you, go for it!!!! I am not going to write anything disparaging, so there.

Don't have to look very hard to know that at least one of them is incorrect.  They simply don't match up.  Which one is wrong?  I don't know.

I did not answer your question to be a smart---. If you look at Rick's photo, one wagon is true to the one-to -one with smooth, straight edges, and the other is mis-proportioned in that the rear compartment is too short and the roof has as many waves in it as my hair. The good one with the woodgrain is from The Modelhaus, and the other is from whats his name.
