The 1/87 Chrysler Town & Country luxury station wagon in real life was made between 1941 and 1942 and again after the war. Indeed it remained in production until well into the 1980s. Our model is based on the first generation vehicle from 1942 with its unique shape and unusual features. Registered 45 1766 from Indiana in 1942, the deep blue body is given a brown panel effect to the sides and the back set in a lighter ‘wooden’ frame. The chrome radiator bars extend round the sides to the front wings and a chrome finish has also been applied to the roof rack, bumpers and wheels. Note the red and gold Chrysler badge on the bonnet and the Town & Country Fluid Drive slogan under the back window. A deep purple red interior, ivory steering wheel and the customary whitewall tyres complete the authentic detail. 

 In real life, this four-door saloon was styled either with a wood body or metal designed to look like wood. The wooden finish was very trendy in its day but it took some polishing, no doubt. The car could take eight to nine passengers and rear loading could be accessed from double doors that opened out at the centre at the back of the vehicle. Coming with a straight six engine, the car was manufactured at the Chrysler works in Detroit. Because of the US entering the war, less than 1000 vehicles were produced.
