Thanks Karl. I have most of the Goldvarg white metal models including the 55 Pontiac convertible, the 51 Imperial, the 46 Chevrolet and the57 Oldsmobile. All are treasured models in my collection.

Who has the very rare 1949 Plymouth Suburban model.  Mopar's first all metal station wagon and very popular in the era with the body used through 1952.

@jkuvakas Thanks for the video. Do you know or have an estimate of the prices for Goldvarg white metal models back in the 1990’s?

I've only seen Sergio's photo of the 1949 Plymouth Station Wagon - never one in person.
