This is my second Surfing woody wagon being done for a friend in the UK. The first one I did was over 6 years ago and I thought was my last. This will be similar but a different paint combination. Progress is slow as it is very labour intensive.

COMPLETED A Micro Models vanguard wagon was the donor for this modification. It is based on a real life vehicle and I have made the model to closely resemble the real vehicle. I think this model has been made by Kenna Models in the UK.
