love the detail on the rear brakes. I assume its been scratch built to look that way? any close ups of them?

The added detail to the chassis and engine are gorgeous!! Also do the M/T tires come in a kit at all or are they resin?

love the weathering on the chassis. I love this kit my self the tbird from the same era is a nice one also.

I currently have the following 1995 Ford F250 1989 Mustang 5.0 1989 Mustang 2.3 1987 Mustang 5.0 (t-top) currently being rebuilt/restored 1988 Mustang 5.0 (t-top) currently being rebuilt/restored 1991 Mustang 5.0 2008 Ford Taurus Also have a 1993 Lincoln continental and a 1997 Mercury Mountaineer V8 but they don't get drove as they are going up for sale soon.

to me it just looks to be the shadowing and the lil bit of overhang from the roof causeing it to look that way.

To me the price is a lil higher than id like but, that's the way it goes. However the level of detail looks rather nice. Ill have to get at least 1 or 2 of them. Ill just use money from my scrap metal and pop cans, etc.. or even sell a few kits that I am not attached to and get one that way. Im just happy to see someone doing a modern truck, and it being a ford makes it that much more desirable for me as im a big ford guy. I just hope they don't come out with other versions lol Mike

Just wanted to post that I am here just no progress as I've been pretty sick the last few weeks and work has left me completely exhausted to the point I've had no energy to do anything. I am hoping to start some progress next week. Looks like you'll be done in no time at all LOL. looking good.

Nice haul and you got the prestige car transporter free UGH!!! lol

Thanks for the pic matt. Yeah ill do some looking for plans and or dimensions etc... maybe I can then scratch build something. Otherwise ill keep watching the auction block for builts and or cheaper unbuilts. id love to se a reissue id get a 3-4 of em ad I have a dio id like to build with em.

Yeah I know, and do understand. Id probably hit the trigger at a $100. But no I did not find the trailer for $100. I was just giving a price range & im just meaning insane prices when your hitting these ranges $125-$150.00+ range for just the trailer. and $200+ for the truck/trailer. Matt can ya tell me when the last time this kit was issued? Thanks mike

Thanks, id have no problem scratching one up, but I just need to find a set of plans for one or someone who had measurement's of the main length, width and heath the rest could be figured from thos specs and measurement's.

I probably would on the meng kit as it should be close to the $50-70 price range, the Mobius wont be that high & those will be new production kits, the trailer has been out of production for a while. Unless there is a rerelease coming that I don't know about. But the price for these are about $200-250 if ya get truck/trailer combo the trailer alone is $100-150.00 plus shipping charges. So that's a bit out of my range. All I want is just the trailer. if I could find one in the $70ish range I would take one.

Ok first off what I've seen where some of ya get plans that show dimensions etc.. for semi trailers and then scale them down I THINK??? That being said im wondering if anything is available for a more modern open car transporter. Like the style ya see cars being hauled to the dealerships on. I know ROG had a few versions with just the trailer and one with truck/trailer. My problem is the prices are completely insane. Heck id take a built up that's in dire need of a resto. Id be more then happy to do the work on it. Figured id ask about plans then make a post in the wanted section to see if anyone's got a built they want to part with. So if ya guys know of anything that shows dimensions, different views of it etc... that be great. thanks. Mike

Ive always hoped to find a testors rack that holds spray cans and the small bottles. maybe someday.

is this for a pick up truck chassis or semi chassis with single axle?

here's a few more escort kits another revell version and an AMT version. I think there is another AMT version also but not 100% sure.

Heres a pic of mine, nice and empty lol. im just getting my room put together as everything was buried in boxes in the basement for the last 5 years since we moved in to our house. I just never had the motivation to clean out the room I was gonna to put it in as we had so much stuff packed in it. Best thing about this desh I got it about a week ago for FREE!! ill post up more pics when the room is done.

There was another Ford GT a year prior that set a record at a different track it went 283 mph ill track down a vid.

I found a gun cabinet that's about 36" by 48" roughly has a glass door. It appears to be home made & has a fluorescent light in it to. The shop wants like $48.00 for it which im sure I could build one for a bit less but then id have to build it etc... This one all I need to do is add some shelves and ill sand it down and re stain and hang on the wall. Its nice and lite also. I'm going to see if they will take a lil less its been there forever. Just been waiting to get some extra moneys. Ill post pics when I get it and after I add shelves, etc.. Mike

omg that just me laugh for the day. thanks!!

that could possibly be explosive lol

I think I saw this asked but where do you get the plans for this trailer?

ok thanks. I know im missing a few other small parts, ill have to go to modelhaus for those.

oh ok its the exact chassis Erik? ive got a bunch of em guess I never thought to look at those lol. ill dig one out and compare. thanks Mike

Wondering if anyone can tell me does this ole AMT 67/68 cougar chassis shared with any other kit by chance. I have an original issue kit that id like to restore but the chassis on it is in pretty bad shape. thanks mike
