I love wagons. 1956 Plymouth Belvedere.

I've had a lot of favorite car body styles over the years, but wagons

have always been a staple that I love to build periodically.

This wagon is a resin kit from R&R Vacuum Craft.

One of their nicer kits in my opinion. Not a lot of clean up. 

I knife opened the hood and hinged it, and then found out a Lindberg 1964 Plymouth 

was a nice donor kit for the chassis, engine and a few other essentials.

I made the inside fender wells and adapted a firewall and radiator assembly from the same '64 Plymouth.

Taping the body for paint and doing the foil work is where i really spent my time.

Thanks for looking. Much appreciated.

What a beauty, I love the paint scheme it's so MoPar. Great stance and the leaning tower of power looks perfect here. I have had two wagons in my life back when they cheap and no one really wanted a second hand wagon. Now I kick myself for ever letting either one of them go.

What a nice looking wagon.  Well done.  I also like the yellow wagon in the case.
