yellowsportwagon Posted November 6, 2020 Share Posted November 6, 2020 So I’ve let this lay around long enough. Time to get it back out and finish it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Van Posted November 6, 2020 Share Posted November 6, 2020 Keep telling myself I will build one someday. I did build a Donlevy 71 Mercury way back, hand painted as there were no aftermarket decals yet! I even put a set of Trucmore decals in the MK version of the kit. Yours is super clean build as always Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dragcarz Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 I love this! What kit/ kits did you use to build this? Can I get some details? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is a Johan Torino body and roll cage (modified slightly for tunnel clearance) on a stretched AMT 90s TBird chassis. The engine is from a Revell 70 Torino Cobra that I used to make an earlier build. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarkJ Posted November 11, 2020 Share Posted November 11, 2020 Am I missing something or did the Truxmore car morph into a Holman and Moody David Pearson ride.? Don't get me wrong, they both look Awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aside from that I would never allow a 72 to morph into a 70-71 in my shop. 72 Torino/Montego are the best looking fords ever made Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarkJ Posted November 12, 2020 Share Posted November 12, 2020 So glad your getting the stance right. if you build this kit ,box stock, the model ends up being way up in the air. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is absolutely not allowed. Stance is everything in my book. And opened wheelwells. Most stock cars had wheel openings that had been massaged shall we say.
