  1. Unfortunately the Starliner script for '61 was different from '60. An MCG photoetch set for the '61 Ford would be great - I'd be in for three of 'em.
  2. Somebody (Fireball Modelworks?) was making correct deluxe wheelcovers for the '71-'73 Cougar; anyone remember who?
  3. 'Tis the holiday season, so:
  4. So does anyone make photoetch or 3D printed Starliner scripts for the '61?
  5. "Mine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the Lord, he is champing at the bit and all the drapes are in the store" sang the Fabulous Fay McKay in her drunk version of "The 12 Days of Christmas".
  6. Marronaise, eh - isn't that what Honey Boo Boo puts on her sammich?
  7. A problem you may have here is that this is a Cycolac promo body rather than styrene, so regular glue may not hold - try using one of the stronger solvent glues (Tenax?). If you do have access to a Ranchero body, you could use it to copy the missing area with two-part mold putty and resin.
  8. charming, picturesque Detroit
  9. Beautiful Teamsters, please let me join; can't drive a truck but I'm willing to loin! (Allan Sherman)
  10. Circles under the eyes can be treated with slices of cucumber.
  11. Product placement from Chrysler; for some reason they didn't mind showing their cars getting smashed up on screen. I would also imagine stunt drivers appreciated their handling qualities!
  12. SteveG, any chance we'll see the All Stars/Scale Stars 1/32 '40 Ford sedan?
  13. "Shocking" was all James Bond said when he threw the space heater in the bathtub.
  14. I was looking at the '57 (closest available) Ford truck brochure at the Old Car Manual Project, and the wheelbases were listed as 110" and 118" with either 6 1/2' or 8' beds, respectively. Looks like you would have to shorten the wheelbase and front of the bed 8mm, and the rear of the bed 10 mm, to get a correct 6 1/2' shortbed.
  15. Just lost Frances Sternhagen a couple days ago at 93.
  16. Love that Motorific T-bird!
  17. OK, Round2 - you can clone and reissue the '58 Bonneville hardtop now
