rsmodels Posted July 27, 2022 Share Posted July 27, 2022 I had planned to post my 60 Plymouth wagon next but didn't want to steal Gerald's thunder when I saw the great looking one he posted a few days ago. Mine can wait a while. I built this wagon using an original kit. This and the 55 and 56 Revell 1/32 models are some of my all time favorites. I have quite a few of each, both built and unbuilt, along with some of the old hobby shop displays. I hope you like this one. It's painted the correct Wimbledon white (thought the name in 57 may have been different). I used Modelhaus glass and AMT 1961 whitewall tires. I foiled all the wood framework and then painted it and removed the paint from all the round mounting bolt heads. Feel free to comment. All comments, questions, and suggestions are welcomed and I do read them. -Rich 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I restore when I can but do use NOS kits like this one from time to time, especially if I have more than one. -Rich Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
