All of these photos of Wagons, NONE of Arnie Beswicks little Tempest wagon.. Has to be some out there.

Here's a wonderful website about the original "Mrs B's Grocery Getter" and the recreation being built.

I'll try to find some other pictures I have.

Here are a few Tempest wagons that attended the Nostalgia Show at Cecil County last year.

John,
I was there and remembered that bad day.. The camera made it look better than it looked in person.

The modern recreation of the Beswick wagon has been around for many years. It's not very close to the original in many ways but it does run in the 7's. In fact last I heard it's for sale....

There is a more correct version of the car out there also that runs NSS once in awhile.

A friend owns the only surviving SD wagon. It was the Joe Denick car from the Philadelphia/NJ area.
