1965 Ford Lightning Bolt


Recommended Posts

This was an idea I've had for a while- the go-fast parts and touches from a Thunderbolt applied to an F-100. The engine, rear shocks, and traction bars were swiped from a Revell Thunderbolt, as was one of the bucket seats. I added the test equipment from the AMT '65 Grand Prix, and the slicks are from a Moebius Satellite. I also gave it a Hemi Dart scheme- gray primer on the steel and black gelcoat on the fiberglass. The battery was moved to the back and sits on an aluminum floor. Unneeded items like the rear bumper and passenger's wiper were omitted to save weight. IMG_8531.thumb.JPG.37270ad6570b3caf55abf16cf3b727da.JPGIMG_8532.thumb.JPG.28560b321c0989b5f76d6db7ad6cf8f8.JPGIMG_8533.thumb.JPG.c7723610326d752a688126b50b7ad2ec.JPGIMG_8534.thumb.JPG.96a4cebd8e574ca1dd4b84f746199d04.JPGIMG_8535.thumb.JPG.95f8288fae880a6b477d0b443059288f.JPG
