Some years ago now, Brooklin, utilizing a US Model Mint master, released this 1954 Studebaker Conestoga wagon named after the famous Conestoga wagons built by covered wagon maker Studebaker, that took settlers to the West. These new wagons, a first for Studebaker as a car company, helped families settle in the suburbs.

I looked at the green wagon above, and then turned to my shelves. Here it is, but this one isn't a BRK.
Do you think US Model Mint had a garage sale? (BTW, mine is a light blue under decent lighting. Click on any picture for enlarging.)

I really like this Brooklin and have it and the ambulance version, but I do wish they had done it in a different color.
