Reminds me of an old classic story I just finished rereading; 'Leave Her to Heaven'. -

Clarity of mind brings definite speech .

Nice morning doon at tha crik, rising sun warming everything nicely after an unusual plunge to 36 degrees early this am. Brrr. Ducks, geese paddling about and a flock of martins sweeping the airspace above the river clean of skeeters and other pests. Wild roses bursting into bloom along the road and a lone bald eagle standing a lonely sentinel in its tree watching for breakfast. Nice way to start the day.

Mark, I certainly agree they are one dog of a kit. I'm only intending to use the body shell. Got an original amt falcon here that I've compared it to and found where I can make improvements. The engine compartment is actually decent; the chassis and the rest... forget it

Find out is what some do after fooling around.
-
Yes it would. The 60-65 falcon and comet sedans, wagons and rancheros used the same one. I've got one of those '64 resin wagons but it's warped beyond easy repair. Another quicker way to approach this project might be to use the trumpeter ranchero. Been picking away at a sedan delivery conversion, maybe with a comet nose -if I ever get that far 🤪 That big block converted '65 must be real rocket.

1972 Ford F100 replica build possible
mk11 replied to gtx6970's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
That sure is a striking project, Bill. While the moeb kits of this series make a passable replica, they suffer from a kinda amateur hour development that shows some fairly obvious proportion issues. There are some 3d files available now that provide a much more accurate replica in scale; check this link: https://www.cgtrader.com/3d-print-models/hobby-diy/automotive/f-100-1970 Looks like most combinations of body types are available. Chassis from the moeb 4x4, amt 4x4 and the '78 bronco could all be adapted to these. Or check with Andy here... -
