I know, I know, I know.......they're gonna re-issue the '65 Lincoln station wagon kit! (With Coca Cola decals.)

Or just another reissue w/ Coca-Cola decals.  I'm not expecting anything actually new...

If it’s not a new wagon, I hope it’s something we haven’t seen in a long time like the 66 Nova wagon in the race set artwork...

Well, that would be new. There never was a '66 Nova wagon kit.  There was a '63, but it got butchered into a funny car.

An unusual wagon subject would be to take the old Polar Lights '65 Dodge Coronet and tool it into a wagon. Might take a bit o' work, though.

The '59 El Camino would only need a body cast as a 2 door wagon or even a 4 door wagon. The Tail Gate is already there. Just add a roof and a couple of different interior panels. The chassis, while somewhat plain by todays standards, already has the correct Fuel Tank  and other basic features.

Was that the boss Nova? Could it be reversed or repaired?

Yes it is. Could it be fixed, sure body could be, but just not sure how much money they are willing to spend.

With the announcement / release of the Impala I'm going to go out on a limb and say it is the Griswold Family Truckster. Maybe the recent Ford cop car reissue, use that chassis?  Davenport!!! Think you hate it now wait to you build it. I do not think a vista cruiser will happen. crushed.

Since we are tossing longshots, maybe the rare Corvair Lakewood Wagon. Made for just two years ('61, '62)
Stock, taxi(!), or lowrider.

Here's our family's '68 Wildcat and '68 Vista Cruiser.  I took these photos in the Spring of 1971.  Yes, I want 1/25th models of both!  Grandpa's '71 Caprice is in the background of the first photo.

Speaking of which, whatever happened to the AMT '64 Corvair molds? I don't recall it ever being reissued in any form including custom or race modifications. Any chance those molds could still exist?

Any full size wagon between 1949 and 1978 is welcome. Especially 1959 Dodge, 1958 Ford, Edsel, Mercury..... 1960 Ford.... 1965-1970 Pontiac, Oldsmobile, Buick, and Chevy of course.... and although not full size, mid-seventies Malibu, Cutlass, Century, and LeMans Safari.

Well since everyone else wants to speculate, And since Round 2 reissued the 1/16 '55 Nomad. Maybe this will be the wagon ???
