One of my favorite Buicks. I loved the grill. Nice pictures.

Thanks ! It's an older model of an older car ..... but it's a goodie in both real and 1/43 model form.

I would like to see Goldvarg Models one day do a series of 1950 thru '53 Buicks of various body styles to address all tastes.  I am excited that Sergio is producing the beautiful '53 Woody wagon this year and hope it is the start of more Buicks of this era.

Altthough I have the 50-53 Buick woody wagons in white metal I am looking forward to the Goldvarg 53. I too would like to see Goldvarg do these years in convertible and sedan  versions.

I'm definitely going for the 1953 woody, the last American true woody,  but already have the complete range of 1950s,  Solido or Solido based transkits.   Now I would encourage Sergio to get a Stellantis license and do some 1950 Plymouths.  Never done in diecast or resin to my knowledge.

@john-quilter You continue to IMPRESS me with your "full range of make & model line ups!"   I LOVE to see these displays in scale form as much as you like to create them. I would add only one thing to your wonderful 1950 Buick roster....  a top up convertible. 😀 😀

Thanks,  I'd like to to a complete range of 1959-60 Studebaker, but can't find any "cheap" donor cars.   Need a convertible and a four door sedan.

@john-quilter Yes, I wish you luck. I do plenty of diecast modifications; there are no more "cheap"  models! 😪 😪 😪

A black 1950 Buick Roadmaster was my first ever car love. Greg Gunn did beautiful work on a Provence Moulage transkit using a Solido donor.

That 1/43 '50 Buick Roadmaster looks great ! The big top-of-the-line Buick was a beautiful car in full-size or model form.

@fmr, A great model with sentimental value. It's good to see you posting again, Frank!

I really like the Lark HT and wagon and would like to see these done in quality 1:43 scale.

Highway Travelers did a 1963 Studebaker Wagoneer. I edited this picture off Google that I believe was taken by John Merritt.  The '49 Plymouth Suburban was one of Goldvarg's original white metal models.

The 1949 Plymouth is very rare.  Needs to be re done along with some sedans and maybe a convertible.   Sedans could double as taxis and police cars.  If some diecaster (Altaya, Atlas,  IXO,  Greenlight?)  launched one, I'd do chops and make all versions.
