If you love old fords you have to get this one!
Designed to take passengers from the train to their destination, the station wagon quickly evolved into the family transport of choice for millions of Americans.
The '57 Ford offered both 4-door and 2-door wagons. They featured Ford's new bow-shaped frame, along with a revised suspension for an improved ride.
Today, the SUV has largely replaced the station wagon, but you can get your Rio right here! Kit features two optional Rio wagon builds:
Police package with roof light, screen, and radio; or standard.
Both include detailed 312c.i. Thunderbird V-8, separate frame, and soft black tires.

Scale: 1/25
Length: 8"
Width: 3"
Height: 2-3/8"
Parts: 156

This one goes on my list. I'm thinking light custom or everyday beater.

Definitely on the list, how about a side-by-side build with a 57 Chev Nomad? Thanks for the heads-up Richard. Cheers, D

Does indeed, I think a '50s Group Build would be great!

I am ready for the 50s group build now that I have picked up one of these!

Interesting car. I have a couple of 1950 cars in the stash. I'd be up for a 1950s Group Build if the timing was right. Jim
