Very nice Cliff.

Nice color choices Mike.

Nice work Doug. Do you have any better pictures of the Ford DFV engine? Maybe before you installed it?

Not sure if everyone is aware but you can delete a thread or topic that you started. Just click on the drop down menu "Moderation Actions" at the upper right of your original post and select "Delete". This eliminates the entire thread. Great for when you have double posted something by accident or if your listed a trade/wanted topic and have completed your transaction

Thanks JT. Fabricated some hold down brackets for the loading ramps. I insert the cut off straight pin up through the cross member and glue it into the handle. This allows the handles to be rotated to permit removal and stowing of the ramps.

Coming along nicely Ron.

It's the LeMan hardtop. HRM offers this kit in resin.

That's a good question Mike! I have nothing built that will do the job. I have a diecast Ford pickup that may have to fill in until I can get something built.

I tried a few different searches as well and no luck.

Thanks Gary. This particular trailer came from the Mako Shark II kit. Yes it is the same trailer as in the '76 Caprice kit.

Bought this incomplete trailer on ebay. Gave it a good scrubbing and started work on restoring it. You can see some of the repairs and improvements I have made so far compared to the stock kit trailer next to it.

Welcome.

Turned out great.

Would love to see that picture if you can find it again Rick.

Like that they include some period photos of the 1:1 car. Wish they would do this with all kits.

I've never built one with kit hardtop either Ray, anxious to see how your turns out.

Very nice Larry.

And I guess yesterday 1/24 was International Model Car day?

You could install a Porsche 911 engine or a Porsche flat 4 from a 356 kit. Fujimi is the best I know of for each but maybe a bit pricey.

Looks like the bomb. I'll have to hunt some down.

Finagled a correct hood from HRM. It's the hood he made for his '63 LeMan Hardtop.

Nice build.

Great project.
