To add to John Merritt's '58 Ford post of '58 Ford convertibles and Christopher Morino's post of a car carrier of '58 Fords, I figured that a station wagon needed representation. Here's my '58 Country Squire in Azure Blue by Conquest.

"....and Christopher Morino's post....."
Thank you, Curtis. That's the nicest misspelling of my name I believe I've ever seen - I'm used to Chris "Moron." 😏 😏 Your Conquest 1958 Country Squire is a beauty.
LSS: I considered (and may still do ) a 1/43 car hauler project using Goldvard 1958 Ford sedans & wagons - and maybe one NEO 2-dr hardtop - to replicate this New Jersey car hauler w/'58 Fords. I did, however, start the project in 1/64 w/'57 Fords and desperately wanted a Country Squire. Unfortunately, Matchbox's '57 Fords are SMALLER than 1/64 scale. 😫 😫

Curtis, I have the Conquest model in a very pale green and the Goldvarg in a gulfstream blue.

And don't forget the 1958 Ford Custom four door sedan which was the largest seller of all the body styles in 1958 at 163,368 sales. This is a Western Models kit acquired and built in 1998.

@chris Sorry for the misspelling of your name. Yes, do the car hauler with station wagons and sedans!
