A friend of mine grafted the roofline of the AMT 60 Starliner to a 61 Galaxie. Starting at the top of the front roof behind the top window trim, cut at the bottom of the C pillar trim to and along to the bottom rear window trim, then curve to the trunk lines as a one piece cut/ graft. His version looked like a seamless transplant and created a a big time envy on my part! Big bucks for a long shot Unicorn but just knowing you got something 99.9% of our fellow modelers don't have would make me right giddy....

Lucky friend! Beautiful all over. One of Fords best looking rooflines, wish it came on the AMT 61 Ford Galaxie...

I'm still debating on pulling the trigger to get one. Gorgeous body style, one looong trunk lid which kinda (Imho) throws the roof lenght diminsions off. The 2nd 3d kit (77 Pontiac Can Am) had more warpage issues than my 1st kit. Did the same process with the hot/cold water way more than once. With the chassis more so I would take popsicle sticks, trim lenght as needed, place on both sides of the affected warp area, then use clothes pins to clamp/ hold in place. The do the hot/cold water treatment & and leave for a few hours at room temp. Repeat if needed if the results are not to your liking but either leave the sticks/clothes pins or add a extra popsicle stick (same thickness or something thinner) to compensate for some return to the original bend/ warpage ever so slight. Hope this tid bit of info helps. Great build! I do have to say that the paint choice is a little radical for me but sometimes you have to jolt the crowd. The more I look back over it, it grows on ya and is a pretty darn smooth application for what it's worth. One last thought, have you've ever seen the movie "Thunderbolt and Lightfoot" with Clint Eastwood & Jeff Bridges? A version of that Monaco jacked up with 10" rear shackles, 50 series (WIDE) rear tires and a flat black paint job comes to mind.....along with the bunnies! Cool looking build thar....

If you are in the over 60+ bracket, you either rode in one, your parents/grandparents owned one, your neighbor had one or there was one parked beside you at the grocery store. I can taste the salted peanuts in the Coca Cola while sitting in the 3rd seat.... A few of ya'll know what I'm saying.....

I imagine the weathering definitely took longer than the build....but what a visual payoff!

You made it look to easy..... But don't let that stop ya from doing another! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Had to go to the model cabinet to see if "mine" was still there..... it was. Oooo weeeee that looks good!

Good eye to detail and the mods thoroughly enhance the end result. There just going to get better from here on after... -

Great build! One of a handful of Builders this forum that doesn't disappoint! Looking forward to the next build..... -
Awesome looking!

The most fluid body style of the Sixties. Reminds me of a Great Uncle who live in Virginia who owned one. Massive hood with a engine that spanned from one side to the other. A ride that felt like you were floating along and a backseat that my brother and me held pre-WWE wrestling era events in until Referee Dad laid some smackdown at the next stoplight! Man that looks Great!

The last picture makes me think of a possible Dodge Ad with the slogan, "This might be the only time you might want to lay your hands on a Demon!"

Before I drive through your "jurisdiction of authority ", I might be adding another carb to the manifold....

Clean looking chassis. The Petty Vermillion fairy easy on the Chargers/ Roadrunner. Never thought about the other of Petty's race cars. You made it look seamless!

That's a "Whopper" of a Beauty! 70's Nascar is a moment of time of it's own. Super nice build
