I remember seeing this in Hot Rod magazine. Smokey was a genius

how bout a combo of the 2? Pre-72 offroad!

I built one that I have been meaning to send to a resin caster that wants to produce them. Just haven't had any time to send it off.

Nope. a forum member stiffed me on parts. Been working overtime almost every day and working on a truck doing body repairs on weekends. I put all my building supplies up for now.

A coworker went to a little country auction and there were some models and there were a couple folks buying them up. One person Who was buying them my coworker ran in to after the auction, and the guy bought a few models for the display cases. The guy was tossing the models in the trash! My coworker came up on him in time to save these two Bosses. He got them for nothing and gave em to me since he knows I'm a gearhead, mustang fan, and model builder. Pretty darn cool. They're in great shape just missing some minor parts but I might not even restore em.

The offroad would be pretty neat... leaves a lot of room for imagination.

For me it depends on the car.

Guys I'm dropping out unfortunately. I was promised the parts last week and I still haven't received them so I've given up. I'll never deal with this particular member again. General Mayhem is out of the running.

I got my multiple ebay winnings in. Like 8 different rebuilders.... whenever I have time to mess with them anymore.

I like any of those suggestions. Also some ideas are: Compact Cannonball - cars with a 1:1 wheelbase shorter than xxx inches. (cant think of that magic number at the moment.. but going away from luxobarges and big muscle cars) Colossal Cannonball - Cars with a 1:1 wheelbase over XXX inches (for big luxobarges and big muscle cars!)

Any tips on making that scoop? I'd like to make one similar and cover it in chrome BMF

1 beer to steady the hand lol and 1 new xacto blade. And then wing it. Turned out pretty good for me.

Someone oughta cast that baby in resin because that is sweet!!!!

Yes its the 55 street machine step side. But they're the finned covers and air cleaner

My little pal is a black and white male short hair cat. Named Stitches since when we got him as a kitten he had a huge gash in his side after he and his brother ran away for 3 months. He's about 4 or 5 now and knows how to be lazy but still has tons of play in him. And he's the best darn hunter there is. He's caught birds, squirrels, chipmunks, snakes, moles, shrews, mice, and if he knew he could take one down he would probably try for a deer! He sleeps on my bed most nights especially in the winter. And is also my alarm clock. It's amazing what a cat standing on your head will do. That or scratching something that makes an annoying noise. He knows what will make noise enough to bother you until you're awake. I'll have to get a picture up here.

beautifully done

Thats a beauty!

The relative replacing Malcolm is Stevie Young.

Every time I see an A body it makes me miss my '74 Scamp. I see it occasionally on the highway which makes me happy knowing its still alive.

Burnout videos or it didnt happen! (when the time comes!)

It's funny... I love old cars and the Mustang II being made in the 70s I consider still an old car, and I am not much into things from the 80s.... yet... I love Foxbody mustangs. I think its because they are like the Lego blocks of cars.... sooooo many cars were built on that fox platform and you can take parts from '79 and parts from '04 and put on your '90. I love that aspect because it allows for sooo much customization and personalization of the car. I can't think of any car that has that much interchangability since then.

My dad's 65 Fairlane. Mom and dad used to take me for a ride in it when I wouldn't sleep as a baby. Something about that lope cam idle that puts a kid right out. Made me a Ford fan and an American car enthusiast for life.

I'd love to see those two bands before they're officially done.

I've not seen this one! I have the monogram 80 bronco but never seen a 79

I agree. There may not be much in the rear fender department but it would look odd without the fronts
