@bob-jackman The Mercury is Conquest. The '49 Chrysler is my creation from the Brooklin DeSoto and a Matrix for the '49 Chrysler parts.

@parisi50 Magnificent! Makes me wonder why none of our favored resin manufacturers has picked up on that one yet…

@michel-lemieux You didn't miss anything with not purchasing the Conquest 1947 Oldsmobile wagon. Poorly done in my view. The front clip is fine but the "wood" part is way to flat along the length of the roof. The back of the model is not sloped enough etc.

I do not think this was posted yet. It is the Conquest 1959 Mercury Colony Park Lane.

That makes you think. Would you say that the CON Chevrolet woodie wagon of the same year is better made?
