I scored this a few years ago. Not sure about the missing wheels (have1) and the tires are missing. But I believe they would be Firestone with WW on one side and RW on the other. (I think I have a set) Looks like something missing from the middle tree. The wheel on the left is the one I have but the box art shows what looks like a Keystone. I must compare the trees with the HT version.

Do you think the chrome trees are the same in the recent issues? I doubt I'll build it. Just tooo many other projects I want to build. I picked up these last year...I'd like to rebuild the '32(?) Custom AMT Ford.

Yup!! the chrome tree is the same..........altho it came with two crhome trees........ what is missing from the org kit i can see is the chrome back seat trim. goes on top of the seat, Its included in the recent kit just not chrome... also its what i used (recent chrome tree) to rebuild the first 66 i did)........

There are 2 chrome trees. Which one is missing the parts for the seats? Yes that's a '67 Galaxie. I picked up interior pieces fr Modelhase at the NNL East this year. The Crysler needs glass (I think the glass fr a '66 Galaxie will fit) The Jav needs an interior. rear seat and pass seat has been removed. I may eventually sell the Galaxie, just not sure what to ask.
