@jack-dodds I am not familiar with Brooklin using these colors on the models mentioned but I'm am just going on what i think would compliment the wood the best.

I do believe BRK did use those two colors on their 2-tone '49 Olds 98 and I've just checked the one I have to confirm.  They are both great colors to use on the woody for sure....great contrast IMHO.

@jack-dodds I would really like the Tawnee Buff because the Bruce Arnold model is Praline Brown Poly as the Bruce Arnold '50 is Praline Brown Poly. There was a Crest Blue Olds wagon at a car show once that I thought looked stunning, that's way my suggestion of that color.

Curtis;

 

I recall that recently someone (maybe you?) posted a pic of a Crest Blue woody from a car show in California; it looked great!

And here's what cream would look like on one.  I did this as a replica of a car I saw at a car show in Marin County California many years ago.   The model is a conversion of a Provence Moulage trans kit for a Solido 1950 Chevrolet.

Thanks Sergio for the preview! If it looks this good at the prototype stage, I can only imagine how great it will be once it meets all your high standards.

@john-quilter John, that is a very nice job you did on that wagon. Do you plan on buying the Goldvarg model? 

I would love to see them side by side.

All the models in your pic look great.

@ben-lampson  No,  I'll pass on this Goldvarg Oldsmobile though I know it will be much higher quality than my "homemade" one.  I'll get the 1953 Buick woody however, and am looking forward to the 1962 Impala and 1961 Comet.  I'm always looking to fill in gaps in my collection,  not necessarily upgrade the quality of items I already have.

Will you get the Goldvarg 1967 Ford Country Squire and/or the 1948 Buick Roadmaster?

Likely not as I already have a similar 1968 Country Squire and a 1948 Sedanette.

These two cars are "must haves" for me and in these colors.  Yellow is about the best 60s Squire wagon color choice; followed by ivory.

Jack I agree that the two models you showed are definitely must haves for me.

@mg-harv  Great selection,  but you haven't gone back this far in the Ford station wagon history.

And there is this very first use of the Country Squire name plate.  A "twin spinner"  1951.
