  1. Looking so much better. I decided not to touch mine and traded it off. Bought it for a quick build but knew it would not have been that.
  2. I am am really liking this build. I just enjoy taking a sub-par kit and doing something with it. Every modification has been very cool I think the only thing I may have done differently is rather than reworking openings I'd have shortened the chassis. Now saying that, I may change my thought if the look of the car improves with a different wheelbase. Build on dude!!!
  3. I like it!!! Been considering getting this kit. Hmmmmmm......
  4. I do not need the wheels or the backs. Thank you
  5. I think they also came on the ice patrol GMC pickup truck
  6. If you look at the rocker area of the '59 it is rather square, the nice thing is the mold is thick enough to sand some decent "roundness" to them. Do a lot of test fitting on the bumper/grill/valance before painting. Engine is subpar to say the least, but it is a pretty old tool. Just some FYI's The '55 is a very nice kit in my opinion.
  7. I would not be shocked to see the "Here Comes the Judge" variation coming out. I have been led to believe the latest issue has the 427 block and headers in the kit. Anyone that may have the latest issue correct me if I am wrong.
  8. Pretty cool!
  9. For 1/43 it is full of excellent detail.

    Very nice. I have a tough time building a kit to completion let alone something like this.
  11. IMPRESSIVE!!!!
  12. Looking for the smaller desert dog tires or the Monogram ones pictured. I have a set of the larger ones that will include wheels and backs from the Mount'n Goat kit. Thanks
  13. Not my daily but just brought this home this past weekend.
  14. The 57 Thunderbird is a good engine to use because of the short transmission. FYI
  15. BUILD IT!!!! Love the AMT 40's, I have 3 built, 2 started and probably 6 in my stash.
  16. Just goes to show you can build something good from this old Pyro kit. 2 thumbs up
  17. I like it a lot. That gold is really sharp!
  18. Very nice!!! Dash lights are impressive.
  19. The Revell 57 Fords were not around back then.... maybe I crossed our lines up by not saying Ford. HAHAHA
  20. Well, some will call me a rivet counter but here goes. That kit is incorrect for a 4 door sedan, but remove the door frames and leave the vent windows it is correct for a 4 door hardtop.
  21. I did it very similar on mine. Going a different rout using the Modified GTO chassis
  22. Very Cool. How did you modify the rear bumper?
