Great review of these magnificent Goldvarg Ford station wagons, John ! They really do standout and are absolute jewels on display and in one's collection. They are astounding deals in today's economic climate on this superb station wagon model.🫡

I have Goldvarg's superb 1/43 1958 Ford Country Squire wood-trim station wagon in green, although right now I am still trying to find one of the tail-light red lenses I lost when I moved to my current apartment. But I display it front side facing out, so the missing tail-light isn't noticeable ! Wink

Excellent video, John.  These models are more home runs for Sergio.  I have the Geranium version.  That color goes so well with the wood trim.  The green car is a beauty also.

I do love those little jet exhausts at the back of the 59s!  😎

1959 Ford sales (and success ) surprised even Ford's top brass!  😮 

After 1958, MNGMNT's hopes were not all that high for '59, knowing too that their 3-yr old design language was up against all-new Chevrolet styling.  Subsequently, Ford MNGMNT rushed '60 models into production - but that's another story.   

Excellent GV models and JK video!  😉

@whodeytink I went with the Geranium version as well as I had several green woodies already.

@chris There was a recession in 1957-58, which may have been cause for caution from the Ford execs.

@mg-harv ...correct, 1958 was a recession year - PLUS - '58 styling was a bit polarizing.      Many believed the '58 facelift ruined the clean '57 look.
