Automatic 250 Posted April 12, 2013 Author Share Posted April 12, 2013 I see I'm not the only 427 fan out there. Here's a happy coincedence: After I built the kit, it turns out a friend built the exact kit 10 years ago! Here are the two cars side by side: He was younger and more energetic, adding a working trunk, doors and turning front wheels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

W-Machine Posted April 12, 2013 Share Posted April 12, 2013 Steelies and dog dish hubcaps get my attention every time. I like your Fairlane, it looks "ready to rumble". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Automatic 250 Posted April 15, 2013 Author Share Posted April 15, 2013 Thanks Greg. I missed a few beats. I just didn't photograph them. You can check out my true confessions about how the kit came together on the "workbench" forum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
