    OK, I can't take it anymore! I need to get one of these kits! Did you order it online?
    (*EDIT I re-read the first post and se you found it on E-Bay)
    Excellent work so far.

    PS thanks for the link Tedy!

    Great work! One of these days, I'm gonna try my hand at this. I used to love building kits as a kid / teenager. Just don't have the free time for it.

    Here's a small update I'm waiting on the clear coat to harden completely before I can finish this up. I fixed the cut line in the tail lights and added some chrome trim. Received my trailer hitch also.

    By the way I started back building 8 years ago after a 30 year gap it's kind of like riding a bike you don't forget how but theirs lot more part available now days plus the internet that makes it easier and faster. It my hobby and my work schedule provides me with 3 day week ends that help with allow me to spend time building.

    Yeah. I just bought this the other day, on clearance at HobbyLobby. Wish I could find any kind of Ford wagon to try.

    EDIT: Never mind on finding a Ford Wagon. Looks like resinrealm has plenty of choices, although nothing newer than 1965. Would prefer a 66-71 Fairlane or Torino. Or a 72-77 Intermediate.

    I'm always checking for new items if I run across any of the Ford wagons I'll let you know.

    Nice, but I would have expected an open trailer in the mid 60's.
