    I had the 1/43 scale Corgi 1959 Plymouth wagon you pictured. And I had a tin toy 64 Buick LeSabre wagon in 1/25 scale like this one.

    I also had the 1/24 scale 1960 and 1962 Ford wagons.

    and I had a 60 Chevy wagon promotional model too.

    [​IMG]

    and I had a large scale 62 Ford Country Sedan tin toy wagon that had an opening tailgate and I think the windows in the doors would slide open and closed. Mine was red like this one and is long gone, but a buddy of mine still has his which is black.

    [​IMG]

    Another one I remember is the 1/43 scale Sabra 64 Chevelle wagon.
    [​IMG]

    And I had a few Dinky Rambler wagons, including a red 57 Rambler, a yellow 59 Rambler and this green 64 Rambler, all in 1/43 scale.

    [​IMG]

    and I had a red 63 Ford Cortina Squire wagon in 1/43 scale as well by Corgi

    [​IMG]

    The only wagon to I still have from my younger days (other than a couple Matchbox wagons) is the 1/43 scale Ideal Motorific battery powered slot car 64 Ford Country Squire.

    My memory is clouded, but I remember having a '60 Ford promo. It was either the wagon pictured, or a Town Victoria 4-door hardtop.

    Also went back to the dealer when the '61's came out and got a Thunderbird. had a working 'Swing-Away' steering wheel.
