Ron Hamilton Posted May 30, 2015 Posted May 30, 2015 Here it is with all it's glory. All ready for some water sports. I want to do some minor touch ups on the wood trim, the parking lamps, and the tail lamps. Some how, I want to do a speed boat. Some day.
Ron Hamilton Posted May 31, 2015 Author Posted May 31, 2015 Are the "wood" side panels decals? The framing is plastic, the studs are pin heads, and the inner is a decal that I cut to fit.
peekay Posted May 31, 2015 Posted May 31, 2015 Ah yes, a real beauty for sure! And to think that we'll soon have another Ford wagon from this era.
59-Desoto Posted May 31, 2015 Posted May 31, 2015 Man that looks so awesome, those surfboards really make it come alive overall in appearance
southpier Posted May 31, 2015 Posted May 31, 2015 ditto. never realized Hubley made any kits except the dreaded metal flash laden things.
Grumpa Posted May 31, 2015 Posted May 31, 2015 WOW! This is beautiful Ron! Nice build! I have to agree with you on the boat. That would make a killer combination!
Mark IV Posted May 31, 2015 Posted May 31, 2015 Having assembled a Hubley wagon while on vacation circa 1963, in the Dearborn Inn no less, with no tools other than a tube of glue and being all of 11 at the time, I can assure you that is likely the finest '60 Ford wagon around. Very nice. You have just taken me back to a road trip to Michigan with my grandparents and a cousin in a 1963 Falcon Squire wagon (one of our dealership demos) that include wonders like the Rouge steel plant and Dearborn Assembly, Greenfield Village and of course The Henry Ford (then known as The Edison Institute and Henry Ford Museum) all amazing to me at that age. And while I have grown older, I have not grown up! Nice job!
Curt Posted May 31, 2015 Posted May 31, 2015 Beautiful build, Ron. Black was the perfect choice for this car and really highlights the wood trim.
