mike 51 Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 Will these come with plated parts Paul? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Hettick Posted March 19, 2017 Author Share Posted March 19, 2017 Well almost finished, now I see a few spots that need attention. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrObsessive Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 (edited) Just the same, that looks nigh perfect Paul! I used to hate wagons when I was a kid and then later when IÂ started driving, now I wouldn't mind one because you don't see them, and I'm certainly not a fan of SUV's or minivans!

socal76 Posted March 20, 2017 Share Posted March 20, 2017 Paul just on the slim chance would this body fit the '66 mercury? I have an extra one of those but no extras of the '64's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sfhess Posted March 20, 2017 Share Posted March 20, 2017 Paul just on the slim chance would this body fit the '66 mercury? I have an extra one of those but no extras of the '64'sMaybe, but note that the 65 Mercury is completely different from the 63-64. Interior is different, and the chassis changed from leaf springs in the rear to coils and front suspension changed too. Frame also totally different.If you have a 64 Galaxie that would be closer as a donor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dimaxion Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 Is it possible to purchase the Galaxie Wheel Covers for the '66 MY ? Thanx .. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Hettick Posted March 21, 2017 Author Share Posted March 21, 2017 Thanks for your kind words everyone. I will try and answer a few of the questions. Yes they will have plated parts, a 66 Merc kit wont work because it doesn't have the correct hood or front bumper. I will be offering a 66 Merc Colony Park trans kit in the future. What are the Galaxie wheel covers for the 66 MY? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dimaxion Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 Not the ones in the MY Kit or Promo  Those are XL , not Galaxie . Thanx ..  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sfhess Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 The Revell Bronco has wheel covers similar to 66 Galaxie covers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Hettick Posted March 22, 2017 Author Share Posted March 22, 2017 still not sure what a MY kit is. btw the caps that come in the 66 AMT kit were optional across the board from 66 to 68. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisBcritter Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 (edited) MY=Model year.I was hoping the Bronco wheelcovers (the rear ones without the 4WD hubs) would be correct for a regular '66, but from what I hear, they're undersized. Can anyone measure a set and tell us the actual diameter? Maybe they can be adapted with a ring around them.

Maindrian Pace Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 Chief Joseph/Fireball Modelworks offers the Bronco/'66 Galaxie wheelcovers in corrected form. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
socal76 Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 Only reason I asked about the '66 Merc is that I have an extra of that but not the '64 Merc. Guess I will have to sacrifice one of my Nascar builds for a wagon! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ranma Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 How Much? and how do we get one????? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael in Illinois Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 Yes, I'm interested as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ranma Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 Once again I'll ask: how much and how do we get one? Do you have a web site that you sell from? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Hettick Posted March 24, 2017 Author Share Posted March 24, 2017 These will not be available until late summer/ early fall. Sales will be through ebay. No website at this time. No plans on starting a mail order business as I don't have the time now. That may change in the future. Thanks for your interest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
