Paul Hettick Posted April 15, 2019 Posted April 15, 2019 The master is done, many of the molds have been made by a well respected caster. The body mold still needs to be done and possibly the chassis and int tub I will have to check. I know the molds are done for the headlights, taillights, hubcaps, bumpers, engine and hood. It's a high parts count kit. body, chassis int tub, dash, st wheel, hood, six cyl. engine, h/l, tl/, h/c and maybe something I have forgotten. Have lost interest in it but would like to see someone finish it up. I would like four complete copies in return for the whole works. It was based from a johan kit, the were a bit larger than 1/25th scale, possibly 1/24th or 1/23rd. I can provide photographs of everything to an interested party. Thanks. Paul
kevin l Posted April 16, 2019 Posted April 16, 2019 Paul i would at least like to see the pictures, if you would like to email me, kawifreek@msn.com thanks kevin
MrObsessive Posted April 16, 2019 Posted April 16, 2019 Wow Paul! I can't remember the last time I've seen one of those on the road! Those were once a staple of working class families and in fact, I believe when my Mom was learning to drive at the local driving school (circa 1967) that's what they had. That odd slanted B pillar sticks out in my mind. That would be one cool model to detail out!
Paul Hettick Posted April 16, 2019 Author Posted April 16, 2019 Kevin have one ahead of you. If he declines we can discuss. Thanks. They are weird little nerdules arent they!
ChrisBcritter Posted April 17, 2019 Posted April 17, 2019 Somebody had a body for a '61-'63 two-door wagon displayed in the Primer class at NNL Milwaukee last weekend - looked pretty good so far.
Paul Hettick Posted April 20, 2019 Author Posted April 20, 2019 So the first interested party has dropped out of sight so the offer is on again. All molds are done except the body and interior tub. Post photos of some of the molds. I'm currently fixing a few spots on the roof.
Tom Geiger Posted April 21, 2019 Posted April 21, 2019 Cool! I want one! One of the custom car shows built on of these in the last season or two. The show with Joe Martin
Ken Kitchen Posted May 20, 2019 Posted May 20, 2019 wow, I was just thinking this past weekend about trying this conversion myself.
dino246gt Posted May 24, 2019 Posted May 24, 2019 I love those quirky styled little things, just waiting for a V8!
Thatwouldbeme Posted November 15, 2021 Posted November 15, 2021 Paul, I had planned to do a '62 before COVID struck and slowed down everything. Is the offer still open? I am interested. You can't have too many Rambler wagons!
W-409 Posted November 19, 2021 Posted November 19, 2021 Wow, haven't seen this one before. But, no matter who would cast it, I want one copy!
