Porscheman Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 It's been a busy week, finishing off both Moebius new Ford Pickup's and this one. My dad had a 4 door Ranch Wagon, so I did it in colors like his & my dad didn't have bumper guard on the back bumper, just like the kit. I painted it Testors Wimbledon White with Tamiya's Military Grey Green. The interior was painted Grey Green and I used the kits supplied decals for the seat inserts. The windows were tinted with Tamiya Clear Blue. I added white walls from AMT's parts pack. I really enjoyed this oneand hope there are more longroofs coming down the pike. Let me know what you think, Thank you for looking. Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phildaupho Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 Great to see a build of a kit I have not even seen yet. I really like the color combination. I can see how rear bumper guards might interfere with the tailgate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Porscheman Posted July 2, 2015 Author Share Posted July 2, 2015 (edited) Thank you Ray, Wayne Phil and Carl & Carl. I could believe all the fight over this kit. It's a great kit and my dad never had rear bumper guards on any of his wagons in the 50"s. Al Edited July 2, 2015 by Porscheman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peekay Posted July 3, 2015 Share Posted July 3, 2015 (edited) Beautiful! Just ordered mine yesterday and it's great to see already that it can look sooooo good! Edit: forgot to say - those AMT tyres look just right and seem to be a perfect fit. Edited July 3, 2015 by peekay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Porscheman Posted July 3, 2015 Author Share Posted July 3, 2015 But it has flaws Al, how can it be a real nice kit? Lol. Lee, I always like the challenge of the flawed kit. BTW, what were they again? Thank you Brian and Peter. The AMT W/W tires fit like a glove. Al Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike 51 Posted July 3, 2015 Share Posted July 3, 2015 Tower Hobbies is listing the wagon as "discontinued" ! Surely this is a mistake? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
