gilsdropshop1 Posted April 13, 2011 Posted April 13, 2011 this was year long project and i had alot of fit issues to deal with, used both revell and ant wagons to complete this ride all in all im pleased with it. \
LAone Posted April 13, 2011 Posted April 13, 2011 that is a sweet wagon. nicely detailed and the paint goes with the flow.
Mooneyzs Posted April 14, 2011 Posted April 14, 2011 Nice wagon! Really like this build. It turned out great.
Steven Zimmerman Posted April 14, 2011 Posted April 14, 2011 Nice build ! Is that the resin body from Ed Fluck?
gilsdropshop1 Posted April 14, 2011 Author Posted April 14, 2011 Nice build ! Is that the resin body from Ed Fluck? thanks for compl. my friend, not sure on maker i picked up kit from ebay sometime ago, i do see the same resin for sale on ebay! under "wagon" in automotive section. good luck!!
Dr. Cranky Posted April 14, 2011 Posted April 14, 2011 I love it. Totally elegant and classy, and the interior and engine really make the thing POP, high WOW factor to the whole thing. It's a keeper!
dragmodeler1 Posted April 16, 2011 Posted April 16, 2011 This really would catch my eye at a show! I loved the interior the most!
Steven Zimmerman Posted April 17, 2011 Posted April 17, 2011 I'm positive that's the one I mastered for Ed shortly before he passed on; from a R/M 65 Z/16,an AMT 65 El Camino,and an AMT 65 4 door wagon. The ones you see on ebay might be fron Modelhaus or Jimmy Flintstone. Holthaus version was based totally on the AMT 65 Chevelle wagon and Elky,which I mastered fo Mike Watgen, and the Flintstone version is also based on the AMT offerings,but I don't know who did it. All three are decent,and build up nicely.........the'Z'man

Thanks for reply. I was impressed with your wagon's visual. Awesome! Do you know if is possible use a revell '65 Chevelle for donor? Front and rear bumpers, grill, hood and frame fits on this resin body? Thanks brother!!! Cesar

Front and rear bumpers, grill, hood and frame fits on this resin body? Thanks brother!!! Cesar ............If this is the Ed Fluck casting,it was designed to use the R/M Z/16 kit frame,hood,grille,and glass The bumpers were modified (bumper guards removed/wouldn't work with the tailgate open )and cast by Ed. Tail lights/tail light housings are needed from the AMT 64/65 Chevelle wagon or El Camino kit. Interior must be scratchbuilt.
Cesar Bossolani Posted April 20, 2011 Posted April 20, 2011 I saw some stuff on ebay... all are Jimmy Flintstone... They are used the same master? On seller instructions say to use with amt '65 wagon... but this kit are super rare and expensive... So, I did that question before. Where could I found Ed Fluck stuff? Thanks Steve. Cesar
Steven Zimmerman Posted April 21, 2011 Posted April 21, 2011 I would contact Ed Fluck junior at Drag City casting and see if he still has the molds.
Cesar Bossolani Posted April 21, 2011 Posted April 21, 2011 Thanks Steven. Please let me know cbossolani@hotmail.com Cesar
zelkam Posted April 21, 2011 Posted April 21, 2011 I love it. Totally elegant and classy ! very nice build
