I remember these cars..

After a another re entry in models again, I am amazed at how much the new issues of Kit's since I've been gone. I will be 61 years old soon, and it's fun to see a 57 Ford two door wagon here, as my dad had one,  (red and white ). Back then it was just a second hand car for him but he did sell it to the guy he bought it from in 1957 as my father sold for the local Ford /Mercury dealership in town. It had a 312, engine 3 on the tree . I remember how the backup lights would light up only the bottom half as they had a diffuser to spread the light better, and how the inside door buttons were by the vent windows a  Ford safety feature.. Sadly the car rusted away (upper Michigan winter's)..long gone, my Parents are gone, the house was sold, ahh, wonderful memories of my youth, that's why I'm back , gluing things together again... thanks....
