Great job. I too like both models. Very nice. Scott

Looks great. Another classic Daniel kit. Scott

I know. But, I'm still thinking about picking another one up. The last one I built, when it was still made by Pyro, was sometime in the mid-70's. And I still do remember how bad it was. But, I have just about every other Cord model kit. I need to at least add this one to my collection. Scott

John and Del are 100% right on this. There were no 2+2s before 1964. And no bubble tops after 1961 for Pontiac. Del you did miss one other '61 bubble top. Besides the Catalina and Bonneville, Pontiac also offered a Ventura bubble. Sam, I don't know what you were washing. It was either a bubble top or a 2+2. But not both in one car. Scott

Beautiful. Scott

Another one I had no troubles with at all. Found it to be a very easy kit to build. And it turned out great. Scott

I'm hoping to hear the answer to this question too? Scott

Here you go, this might help. Scott

Very nice job. But, what is the kit (manufacturer) and what scale? Scott

By the way, this is the type of stuff I love see in this forum. I love seeing all the variations of different kits. Seeing what I had, or have. And what I may have missed at the time. I believe I got the MPC '70 'Cuda, along with the MPC '70 Firebird Formula 400 for Christmas back in 1970. I wish I had those two kits now. Scott

Hey, Chris above stole my line! I too think it look good. Very nice in fact. Scott

I've got to ask. Is that a die cast model? If it is and since your new here, you may not know, there is a special area in this forum for die cast. Scott

Hate to do this to you Tom. But that '69 Ford wagon you saw? Is really a '68. Sorry buddy. Scott

Interesting, we've seen 3 Pyro/Lindberg Lincoln Continentals in this thread. And all 3 look pretty good. The front ends look weak and soft. And were the top meets the windshield needs work. But beyond that I'm surprised how good they look. Still I'm not going to run and buy one. My skill level is not that good. I am tempted to go after the Pyro/Lindberg Cord 812 though. I know it's really no better than their Lincoln. But, I love 810/812 Cords, and own most models put out of them over the years. Including the Revell Highway Pioneer 1/32nd scale Cord 810 from the 1950's. Which surprisingly isn't too bad of a kit. Scott

Why?

Can we see it? Scott

Great review. This is where photos help a lot. But, the info you passed on in your text is important too. It would be nice to see the instructions in future, after you find them. I'm curious about seeing how the body goes together on this one. Scott

What's wrong with this one? It looks great! Scott

Fantastic. The color is perfect for car. Scott

Good save. I like it. Scott

The Revell '56 Ford pickup Kevin talks about above, is another of those kits I had no problems with. But, like Kevin many do. I don't consider myself to be a better of builder than most others posting on these blogs. So, why do some have troubles building one kit? And others don't? And then it turns around. A kit the first person finds trouble free. The second won't. At the same time, I think everybody has problems with Palmer, Pyro, and Premier. Scott

Two great movies, the original Italian Job and Mad Mad Mad World. I've never seen Yellow Rolls Royce. So I can not comment on that one. Scott

Oh.... You got a '59 and '60 Mercury too? Very nice. Scott

Two of my favorites are the F-86 (but not the dog) and the Me-262. Shooting Stars were cool too. I like the looks of the early jets. Scott

Never saw that movie. But, thanks for explaining it Bill. Scott
