  1. When this and the Ford trucks show up my wallet will be hurting.
  2. Sharp ole Gal
  3. Noooooo!!!!!!
  4. I just ordered my Thunderbird stuff (and some wheels) today. Really nice stuff, I have quite a bit from Ed.
  5. Love these AMT 40 kits. This drag car '40 is coming along nicely! Check tire clearance on the rear before painting the body. I had an issue on a Plymouth after painting, not fun.
  6. Very cool dirt tracker!!! As an FYI, that is not a YBlock, it is an FE, 352,390,406 or 427. All visually the same.
  7. Hope your feedback reflected that!
  8. Got a set of 3D printed master cylinders and boosters from Ebay and was very disappointed. They are nice prints but way undersized. They are listed for 1/24 and 1/25 but look closer to 1/32. This is an FYI if you see them and consider purchasing them. I messaged the seller to inform them of my thoughts, maybe they will resolve the issue. Here is a booster and single master cylinder next to a Revell 66 Mustang master cylinder for comparison. Any good sources out there for these kind of parts?
  9. AMT 64 Mercury has a convertible boot that will work. Hood can be found, I have a 61 body that is bad that I can cut the hood out of also.
  10. Personally I'd restore it. FYI, it is a 1961 Ford in case you look for parts. Don't need ya getting the wrong things
  11. I got these in Akron Plastic Underground today.
  12. I sure hope they fixed the body on the 57
  13. The correct top can be had from Ed at Drag City Casting FYI
  14. Thank you for the information. It is very helpful.
  15. Very cool, but a mini lathe is beyond me for my kits. Takes me enough time to build things as is. Wish I had more bench time.
  16. I'll look closer but they looked to be the same as the 82 Olds. I am wanting the deeper AMT ones, just do not think they are available other than the '69 from my searching. If that is what I need to get for the wheels, so-be-it.
  17. I am looking to use a set of Olds Rally wheels on a project. What, if any, AMT/MPC kits have them other than the '69 442? I grabbed a Revell '83 Olds for them and do not like them and want the AMT/MPC set. So far even Evilbay has been a bust for just the wheels so I need to look locally for a kit.
  18. Well, the Green Hornet is wanted to do a custom for sure. The exterior post trailer will be a future purchase.
  19. My favorite body style Mustang and I am watching to see how this comes out. I like the AMT 71-73 Mustangs. The latest is actually the MPC version that I do not care for. The seats and tail light panel on the actual AMT is much nicer. Unfortunately when AMT converted to the race car version the stock interior was lost in favor of race seats, blank door panels and blank dash.
  20. Just give the BMF a rubdown with a dry Kleenex and it should shine back up. I would put money on those body flaws being from the glue shrinking the plastic. I little too much and this happens over time. Dealt with it myself. An FYI for you and anyone else, I like to use rubber cement for my fender skirts, hold well, avoids this issue and you can remove them easily without damaging plastic or paint.
  21. I also like these concepts you have done. You have a great imagination.
  22. Beautiful build
  23. Good lookin' 'bird
