Here is another Highway Miniatures polystyrene model vehicle in 1/87 scale. There are two sprues with a set of delicate parts that include a clear window insert and a detailed engine. Including an engine indicates that the model can be modeled with the hood up or closed. I will be modeling this model with its hood up and with someone peering in to see what the problem might be. “FORD-fix-or-repair-daily”.
This is another example of a horse drawn wagon and another Highway Miniatures kits. As you will note the kit comes with enough parts for two complete wagons. Like the Old Farm Wagon, this kit contains a set of highly detailed and delicate parts. Although this kit does not come with a driver it does come with two barrels and one sack. Take notice of the difference between the two horses.
This 1/87 scale Highway Miniatures Old Farm Wagon kit includes three sprue molded in polystyrene. The three sprue, include sets of highly detailed and delicate parts. Two of the sprue in a cream color contain two half’s of a horse, the parts for wagon driver and other miscellaneous parts for the wagon. The third sprue, in grey, contains parts for the wooden body of the wagon.
Clearly written instructions with an assembly diagram are included. Attesting to the delicacy of the molded parts, there is a small order form printed on the instruction sheet that can be used send off for parts that might break during assembly.
The parts, assembled with liquid model glue produce a highly detailed model that will look great in a country scene on a train layout.
Since many of the parts of small and delicate, I would be very careful with the amount of glue that you use. It is very easy to mar the surface of the plastic parts with your finger prints. It should go without saying, but the removal of parts from the sprue should be done very carefully.
