Harry P. Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 ps.... Harry it's got Mirrors Yes, it does! Which makes it a much more realistic model than it would have been without them. Very nicely done. Not just the mirrors, the whole thing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vaughn Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 Real nice !! Use to drive one of those while in college. Not that color (did'nt have colors like that). Fun little car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dimaxion Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 Nice build . Ok , a repaint (Earl Schieb ; "Any Car , any color" [as long as it was their excuse for paint {IMHO}] . The tires had to be leftovers from prior to 1962 when the thin whiote walls came out and made the W/W's obsolete and extinct as Dodo Birds . Just right for a Penny Pincher of the day ! Well done model . Thanx .. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
