Andy, let me know when you do, I could a few pairs. Have any AMT custom 57 parts?

I have the old front end with the Desoto bumper also. Do not have any of the original rear custom pieces

Well, after looking at the Pics posted here, it is easy to see that Revell had the Gasser planned for the Wagon, from inception. Nice to see how the inner fenders will need to be trimmed for a Sedan Gasser, though. I'm really looking forward to seeing exactly What Engine options are in the Gasser Wagon kit.   I need to start building these Revell Fords.

Yes, AMT's 57 Fairlane 500 kit Custom Edsel Wagon tail lights a bit Large

They are closer to 1/20 scale

I cut about 1/8 inch out of the center of them on both sets I have made

I have a resin wagon that was sold as a Bermuda, but used the ford Tailgate trim, so Was doing her as a Villager

I also bashed a Revell Chopped roof Ranchero with one of AMT's Modern Tool Edsel Pacer's

I knoe the dorr length is correct as the Pacer was tooled as a 2dr

 

Sad that I will not get to finish those 2 builds

The AMT '57 Ford kit's Edsel wagon taillights were sort of phantoms - they were designed to fit the taller fins of the Fairlane 500, whereas the real ones were designed to fit the shorter fins of the Custom series which were used for the wagon.
