I've seen red & white FC wagon with no interior in 1:43 Scale. Can't remember name of manufacturer, but was New Zealand. Possibly Micro. I reckon Slim has either got one, or at least a pic of one to post here. I recommend you phone or email Trax models with a suggestion to do a wagon version of either the FE or FC. If enough people annoy them, they may consider it. They did an FJ wagon recently, so my guess is the FC won't be far away. Then we can just argue over colour options. ;D Title: Re: Any models of wagons Post by: Shayne on July 28, 2005, 08:32:43 AM Here is an old discussion on this topic::

Rob Title: Re: Any models of wagons Post by: mcl1959 on December 05, 2005, 10:28:14 AM Yeah, it looks like it's had the odd roll over or two ;D
Ken Title: Re: Any models of wagons Post by: ridgey_didge on December 05, 2005, 11:18:11 AM I bought what looked to a model FE wagon on ebay recently. It is still in transit from Canada. It has been restored, but is missing the rear drivers side pillar in the wagon section. I got it for under $30 and thought it worth the punt, even though from the photos and description its not entirely clear what it is. Said to be 1950's Australian made. I am waiting for the postie to turn up with it to solve some mysteries.
Cheers, David Title: Re: Any models of wagons Post by: ridgey_didge on May 18, 2006, 08:10:35 AM Its taken some time to get the photo, but here is the model I mentioned. It also has some FE features and some FC features, like Kens.

Is missing the rear driver's side pillar - I don't know why.

picked up this one on our trip to Mt Gambier Stopped at a toy museum in Willmington S.A. just out of curiosity, the owner opens up when you ring the doorbell. There's tons of interesting old toys. The owners own collection over years. Had this for sale $45.00 but let me have a discount because of my wagon parked outside ;D Said he got it about 5 years ago.(calculating from info on side..this year is 10th toy swapmeet) A repoduction by Micro in New Zealand of an original 1950s toy. marking on chassis - Micro models,Holden, XJ72(stamped) writing on roof - stall holder model#072 on side - ANDREAS FLENCHES 5th MEGA TOY SWAPMEET 6-7 JUNE ADELAIDE AUSTRALIAS MEGA OF OLD TOYS AND MODELS doesn't have any scratches or damage 8) 8) 8) Title: Re: Any models of wagons Post by: red_devil on April 02, 2008, 07:41:59 PM We will be doing a standard FC wagon and ute in 1/43rd scale followed by the same in FE later this year.
The photobucket shot is a very rough prototype. Regards Red Devil www.models56.com.au (http://i63.photobucket.com/albums/h130/models56/PICT0009.jpg) Title: Re: Any models of wagons Post by: ridgey_didge on April 03, 2008, 08:25:14 AM That's great - keep us posted as to progress please.
David Title: Re: Any models of wagons Post by: red_devil on April 03, 2008, 07:40:52 PM Hi David, will be putting progress shots of the cars as they come. As stated we will be doing wagons and ute's as standard, specials and nostalgic customs. I will be asking for help from the members to tell me the most popular colour combos.

Hope this is the right address for the photobucket shot of the development of the 1/43rd resin FC Wagon. A ute is also coming and both cars will be done in FC and FE models. They will be in original factory colours and a hottie version. Red Devil. Title: Re: Any models of wagons Post by: ridgey_didge on August 30, 2008, 05:58:07 PM There's one on the bay now - as it is over $200.00 with more than a week to go it must be the FE livery that is pulling in the bids!! ;)
