rsmodels Posted August 8, 2022 Share Posted August 8, 2022 This was a built kit that I took apart, stripped, and restored as needed. I used the kit tires and hubcaps instead of changing to larger tires as I usually do on these Hubley Fords. These hubcaps are the same as the ones used on the 13 inch 1:1 62 Fairlane wheels. I don't think they were made in the larger size for the full size cars. I liked the looks of these but have a set of Modelhaus 62 Galaxie hubcaps to use on the next 62 wagon I build. Please feel free to comment, I appreciate all, good or bad. Thank you for looking. -Rich   My 60 Plymouth wagon will probably be next up. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

espo Posted August 8, 2022 Share Posted August 8, 2022 Another beautifully done Hubbly. I like the paint colors used. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bainford Posted August 8, 2022 Share Posted August 8, 2022 Nice re-build, and a good looking wagon. I've been intrigued by these Hubley Ford wagons for some time, and keep my eye out for one. I see lots or promos on the bay, but usually warped badly. The kits seem less common. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, these kits are less common. I think the 60 is the easiest to find, frollowed by the 61 and then the 62. -Rich Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
