Ford Falcon Sedan Delivey Update 10/02


Recommended Posts

 This is my very first attempt to actually work with a resin body,I found this at a local car swap meet with donor kit for $24 so I figured I would give it a try....and also my first try with Fotki being with all the issues I have had with photobucket......so I hope I have done this right.

 Basically it's just going to be a curb side build and still deciding on what type of company/use it will carry when done......if I get this done.....any comment or suggestions please by all means do so being like I said this is my first resin.

 Hope to get some body color on this thing this week end if all goes right....

I used to live in San Bernardino California in  the '60's, there was a business called San Bernardino Racing Equipment. All of his personal vehicles where black and always car show ready. He had a shop truck, a Falcon panel, that was black with gold leaf lettering on the side panels with a nice set of mags and had a 289 4speed. Just a thought, but I think a speed shop would be a good commercial type build.

Looking forward to this build,  I have the same resin body and will be using the Ranchero kit with a small block FORD or maybe a resin FORD 6-cylinder to replace that god-awful BBC.  Of course mine is a ways down on the list.   Will watch your build with interest.

Wow....That is a great color for this one.....Very nice clean up, too....

             X's 2 Glad to see you got the paint problems sorted out. With that color you have lots of options for a two tone paint job.
