  1. Oh ok. Thank you very much. I will check that out soon
  2. Thank you for the info, where did you find it? I searched the site and found nothing. I for one never received what I ordered from them (it was foxbody pieces) so would rather not buy from them but I may have to once I get in over my head
  3. It kinda is but lacking proper care, cover, stripe to drag race and so on. Plus it being 80s tech even the 0 mile foxbodies need this done sooner or later
  4. Thanks kruleworld The car has had a few owners one wanted to drag race it so it had a crazy motor and rear end in it. That was removed to put stock stuff in it. Car needed bumper covers too the. Caught some hail damage so new paint was a must. Stock suspension was getting worn out so all that was swapped to new stuff with OEM thunderbird super coupe lowering springs. Interior was changed to stuff that was in better shape. So basicly it's a new old car that I now daily drive. I'll happily answer anymore questions
  5. so about a month ago i bought a 93 LX vert from my brother. car has 60k original miles and restored from top to bottom. so today i picked up a 92 GT vert kit and begain to start the lx conversion. here my 1:1 vert to show what im shooting for rear quick info on car. color is bright calypso green, gray GT high back seats, stylin bar, valve covers and pullys color matched so anyway heres my kit so far stylin bar came from a 98 Saleen S281 kit i had laying around might have to raise it to make it look right as you can see i have a long way to go, might paint the wheels white tomorrow just to get the feel of the car, only thing im really missing is LX front bumper and LX tail lights. so if any one has LX parts please let me know im going to try to update this as much as i can i am no where near the best modeler but i do try questions/ comments welcome so thanks for looking
  6. You are correct Rick. I was going off what the box said. I think revell changed the box in the past few years
  7. i started this project originally as a copy of a friends dads 1:1 thunderbolt but got bored with the stock style. so i found a saleen S281SC kit and slammed the drive train and suspension in it. not sure what else to say about it better pics coming tomorrow so thanks for looking Blue504life
  8. thanks man, i wish i could have found that when i was building it, the 05 GT twin kit is the one this model is based off, but i only had the rear end shot to work with. thanks for giving me that link. might need to do a rebuild with the KR kit
  9. thanks guys I have it set up kinda funny, I technically have the turbos on backwards, but I didn't realize it till it was to late to fix it but there are 2 air filters on the back of the turbo between the rear axle and the turbo. The filters are black so there hard to see
  10. that sure is, looking forward to seeing the build
  11. so there it is Twin Axle back turbos sorry for how blown out the pics are, no idea why they are (stupid camera) questions/comments welcome thanks blue504life
  12. well i very rarely finish projects (or post here) but i finished one had a 1980 turbo cobra kit that i did without the decals painted a GT-H shell then put the decals on it that was 6 months ago grabbed the shell found all my spare parts from 4 different kits and here we are continue in next post
  13. thats awesome, reminds me of something i saw on google of parnelli jones' BOSS
