Tony T Posted February 7, 2011 Share Posted February 7, 2011 I got this a couple of years ago off eBay with a Union VW Gasser and a trailer, both built up. I rebuilt the Gasser a while ago, and this wagon was hanging around my bench since then. Since I had been working on a 66 Nova rebuild, I dug this one out, cleaned it up, repainted the interior from gloss red to flat blue, left the engine out, and glued the hood shut (metal front axle, 4 promo like locator posts for the body to chassis join) so it is a curbside. Grabbed a set of tires and Cragar wheels from the parts box, and here is a nice support vehicle. I need to fashion a trailer hitch, but another time...so, I have another one off the bench that has been languishing for a while... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GTMust Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 I've got a couple of these wagons to build. Nice job on yours, Tony.... I like the parts chaser concept. The dio really sets the stage for your builds very nicely. Tony Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
