OK, I had the three longroofs on the bench at the same time, and planned to finish them all, and unveil them as a unit.

But, since then, another longroof has joined the bench, so when I finished the '66, I decided to post the first two. Katie went with the "surfer girl" look for this rollout.

Hard to see in the direct sunlight pics, but the paint is kandy red fading to kandy wild cherry

The dullcoat gave me fits on this one, but I still love the Kdog lines and the scratched cooler and "refreshments" in the back.

The 59 Body is resin from Jimmy Flintstone The surfboard in the 59 is from the AMT 41 Ford Woody custom. The boards in the 66 are from AMT 64 Marauder kits. The decals on all of the boards are from the JoHan 59 Rambler wagon.

For all its unpopularity, the Revell 66 Chevelle wagon can be a great model, it just takes some thinking and planning. This one is a classic case of taking a sow's ear and making a silk purse. Seems like there was a time when wagons were more popular than they are now, though there are quite a few available in resin.

Great job and thanks for your work!
