Dear friends,

Here is the second version of the 1971 Buick. It was modified from previous prototype, specially in the windscreen ( in one of the photos you can see both windshields and the improvements).

We are now in the production process.

Enjoy the photos!

Looks pretty much like a "must have" to me.

I’m not sure how many of you check out eBay now and then. I have recently seen Goldvarg models being sold by Chinese sellers that have not been available in the US. I know sometimes models have a tendency to be taken from the factories and sold.  
I guess my question is will these models eventually be available in the US. I would hate to by in China and have to pay the tariff if they are on their way. 

1960 Pontiac wagon in yellow/green and blue

1959 Buick Wagon in light blue/white and a maroon like/white 

and today a 1955 Pontiac wagon green/green 

thanks in advance

[edit] I would check hobbyDB and goldvargcollection to make sure these are genuine colors.  They are rejects or seconds from the factory.  They seem to be announced circa 2022 so...  Keep checking ebay and other sites...  See reply below!

Was the 1955 Pontiac a 1956?

I have been impatiently waiting for those 59 Buick wagons for years and did see them on eBay last week.  These were both planned colors so I hope this means they are coming soon.

@jmullinax The Goldvarg that yuo see in a Chinese Ebay store were stolen from factory and I have disregarded them due to quality issues.

When I realized about the quality problems I decided to immediately stop production and discard the 25 units that were made.

So, please do0n't buy them as you will be disappointed.

There are NOT official approved Goldvarg models!!!!!!!!!

@goldvarg Thanks, Sergio.  I never intended to buy one as I expected they were either quality rejects or stolen.  Sounds like both! 
Really looking forward to these!

@karl Sorry it was a 56 Pontiac. It was early in the day and I typed a 5 instead of a 6.
