I will add my two thumbs up. Nice models and pictures. I have the Conquest 1959 in green. The Conquest 1957 Buick wagon must have been made before I started collecting white metal models. Otherwise, I would have one.

1957 Buick wagon
I've never owned any 1:1s but have seen a few in person, it hard to believe mothers (little women ) would go shopping or pick up the kids in these "monster size" Buicks. But then again, how many of us today see "tiny women" behind the wheel of a Dodge Ram or F-150? 🙄 😏

Each of those station wagons look superb ! The 1:1's were real stylish workhorses when necessary and were also just attractive and giant automobiles. They make fine 1/43 replicas.

Here is the green version of the Goldvarg 1948 Pontiac with fender skirts and visor.

Love those wagons. Wagons are a big part of my collection. My wife and I have owned five 1/1 scale wagons over the years.

I too love those wagons and like Bob I have had five 1:1 wagons, a '48 Mercury, '40 Ford De Luxe, '59 Ford Ranch Wagon, and presently a '50 Ford Custom and a '57 Chevrolet Nomad.
A small sampling of my 1/43's.

@parisi50 Curtis your present inventory of a 50 Ford Custom and 57 Nomad are both wonderful collectable cars.
