Plowboy Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 Just finished this one up. Pretty happy with how it turned out. My only disappointments are the stance and my trunk lid won't hold itself up like it did in ALL of the mockups. It's a bash of an original '63 promo and a Revell T-Bolt. The T-Bolt supplied the chassis, core support, engine and floor pan. The rest came from the promo. Other kit parts used were the valve covers from a Revell Torino Talladega, wheels and front tires from a Super Clean Olds Pro Stock and the rear tires from an unknown kit. Also a few scratch built pieces. Paint is Tamiya Gun Metal and clear on the body, Dupli Color Bright Red for the engine and interior.

espo Posted December 13, 2019 Share Posted December 13, 2019 I enjoyed watching all the effort you put into this build. The finished model looks great and I like how you left the "260" emblems on the front fenders. Keep them guessing out there at the stop light.

DRIPTROIT 71 Posted December 13, 2019 Share Posted December 13, 2019 Beautiful build! I had 2 63 Fairlanes years ago. Both were two door posts. One of them had the red trim and red interior like your build. I wish that I would have kept at least one of them. I really like this one! Excellent work!!

SoDak1 Posted December 13, 2019 Share Posted December 13, 2019 Lots of great detail under the hood there. Congrats on this beautiful build. I think you could find it in you to forgive the stance and trunk lid ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Darby Posted December 13, 2019 Share Posted December 13, 2019 (edited) It's a beauty, with impeccable craftsmanship. I had 63 Tudor post back in the day. A copper bronze color. I still miss that car. Edited December 13, 2019 by Dave Darby Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
