Conquest 1941 Plymouth estate wagon. In a previous post, a forum member was looking for this car to go along with his coupe.I believe it was Ben Lampson. There is one for sale on Epay. I have no interest in the listing or sale of this model.Just passing info along to interested party.

Yes Harvey....I was waiting for that color model, but there just isn't any out there available....

Is the white roof vorrect?......I wonder.
Back in those days, Black rubberized material was used Black would look good with the Rust paint. The Rust is OK, if available on station wagons. Convertibles maybe? Anybody know for sure.

Ray the top on the '41 Plymouth is suppose to be tan as it was on many makes of wagons at the time. Black was also used. Here are some original photo ads for Plymouth in color.

No arm twisting necessary to get pics from me! you will see them soon, it is coming from Arizona

Photos being what they are, the top is more of an off-white to simulate canvas.
When Buz first released this model with a flat black roof, several collectors (here, I think) pointed out that black was wrong. The JM Modelautos version and subsequent issues attempted to rectify this with a lighter canvas look. Yes, you will see restorations that use black, and I don't think those are correct, but I'm no Plymouth expert.
