(Pics) 1948 Chevrolet Fleetmaster
There aren't many station wagons available in 1/18 scale diecast, but this is one of them and it's nicely done by Welly in the low-price range. It's a '48 Chevy Fleetmaster woody wagon.

Great looking wagon. Like this one a lot.
Welly?
I have it and I thought it was a Maisto!
Whatever- it's a nice one!

You're right, the Maisto one seems to be identical, so I think they shared the same mold.
I have that one in grey. I got it in a package deal with three other models, two of which...
... I actually wanted. The Welly '48 has never been opened, so I really don't know much about it.
Interesting, I got my grey one with two others a 39 Chev and 49 Ford
Mine came with a '55 Chevy Bel Air convertible (Ertl), a '63 Corvette coupe (Ertl) and...
... an '82 Corvette coupe (Welly). The main ones I wanted in the deal were the '82 'Vette and the '55 Chevy, but the '48 Chevy was the only one in the entire package that didn't arrive broken. My guess is that it was probably because it was the only one that had never been removed from its original packaging.
