  1. Great job... Doing the foil on these is quite an undertaking
  2. Great job on a parts box build. The taillights even are close the the German Ford Capri I'd like to get one of the AMT kits. I have the Monogram, but it is a curbside.
  3. Looks really good. Am I correct to read the hood is separate? Interesting
  4. Great stable ya got started there.
  5. First car (truck) I drove was a 70 Chevy C10. My grandfathers friend let me drive it right thru town. I was about 9.
  6. This was found in a little antique shop for $30. Complete some parts poorly painted.
  7. in 71, they built 3,880 Monterey 4 door hardtops and 23,895 4 door sedans. Just an FYI
  8. We are just ashamed to admit to them......
  9. Yea, I love these wheels, (and Cougars) have them on my 87 Marquis also. I received a Marquis grill with the car, it is wider and does not fit. I spoke with someone just today and may get the grill bars laser cut and a friend said we could weld them up similar to how this grill is for mounting points. I did locate an NOS grill, but it is $700.... I am passing Not sure I would want the dash changed... I like the layout. Maybe changed to accept some more gauges. I am going to add a 3 spoke rim blow from a Cougar I have. Just today I learned this: No. Produced 9,099 Body Body Maker Mercury No. Doors 2 Passengers Model Number 65B Weight 3,959lbs
  10. Here ya go... Swapped wheels recently. In search of a center grill, I found the side piece.
  11. Looking good

    COP OUT

    Looks really good! I really enjoy these old kits
  13. Looks Great. I have not tried to tackle this one yet
  14. BEAUTIFUL!
  15. Connect a leaf blower to the snout after gutting it. VIOLA!
  16. Found this 1971 Monterey and just had to have it. Needs some tinkering, but will be 100% roadworthy soon.
  17. I noticed!!! Making a nice build gooder!!!! LOL For reference, the valve covers are backwards. I have done it also!! 2 bolts bottom, 3 bolts top. Makes no sense to have less bolts where it may leak.
  18. Great old kit. Always looks "right" Great job
  19. I used a standard Montego piece and trimmed to fit
