Very cool!

The AMT's can build into nice models; although, many use them for their chassis as a donor. I built several of the AMT's, but not the Ford. The one thing that bothered me about the kits is that the tires have a habit of fitting outside of the fenders. I don't know if this occurred with the Fords, but the picture below gives you an idea what I am writing about.

If you are looking to buy one, I suggest Pace paint booths. They will take care of spray paint fumes real well. I have the 24" Mini Plus and am very happy with it. Their website is: http://pacepaintbooths.com/pace/Products.htm

When my wife and I got married, she had a manual and I had an automatic. Her car was newer, so we took it on most trips. We went to an outdoor concert in K.C. and there were about 40,000 people. Getting into the stadium was not hard, but leaving was awful. That night we both swore we would never buy another car with a manual. On an unrelated note, my wife's cousin is a long haul trucker and his company bought him a new truck. It has an automatic in it. In fact, he says this is likely the wave of the future in trucking as well.

I use ELO (Easy Lift Off) by Pactra. Works really well. I brush it on with an artist paint brush and you can be quite "surgical" removing the ink.

Wow, the paint work is masterful. The various levels of shading is amazing.

Very nicely done! The port detail on the sides of the hood are a great touch.

Great job Bruce! Looks really nice.

Very nice looking. I like the paint too.

Looks great! Outstanding work.

Very cool! Looks great.

Looks terrific! Really outstanding work.

Great job Johnny! The paint is flawless.

Thanks for the kind words everybody. I appreciate it.

I am glad to hear about your news, Bob. I hope you have many more years. I had a heart attack twelve years ago. It was my LAD artery (the widow maker) that was clogged. Mine was not near as severe as yours, but it was an eye opener, since I was only 45.

Hope everything turns out well for your wife. Good luck with the cooking and cleaning.

Great job!

Very nice!

Very nicely done.

Great story. Enjoyed the ending as well.

I am sorry to read of your situation. These problems are never fun or inexpensive. A co-worker of mine had his sewer line collapse. They got him for about $20,000.00 when all was said and done.

Great job Bruce. Really stellar work!

Very nice. Great job with the decals.

Looks very nice. Excellent work!
