I'm using an AMT '66 Fairlane chassis under a Modelhaus '68 Torino hardtop, converted into a Fairlane 500. This a replica of what my 1:1 Fairlane 500 looked like when it was new.

Here ya go.....

Ford or Mercury.😆

Working on the "North Carolina Drag Combo" 😎🏁 o

My latest scores 🐍🐍

The AMT Talladega has serious issues with the nose and grill. The nose doesn't fit at all, and the sides are shaped wrong. The grill is too narrow; the Talladega, Fairlane and Cobra all used the same grill. I tried modifying the nose piece to accept the correct grill, it didn't go well. 😄

I don't know who made, it bought it on epay awhile back.

Slim chance, but I'll once again ask for a 1968-69 Cyclone fastback. They could use the less desirable '69 Cobra chassis & drivetrain to save money, I wouldn't mind. A new updated chassis & drivetrain would obviously be preferred. While we're at it, how about doing the Cyclone CJ and Spoiler II as well? 😆 Round2, if you're listening, I would happily loan you my resin Cyclone for this project!

VERY COOL!....but where's the rear spoiler?

Don't hold your breath. The 68-69 Fairlane/Torino is the red-headed step child of the classic car universe.😐

Never say never!

I picked this up recently, I'd never seen one before! 😄

'61 Starliner please! 🏁

I subscribed on 8/28/23, and haven't received any mags yet. About a month ago, I inquired about my subscribed and never got a response. Please let me know, thx.

Good to know, I have a few AMT "parts kits" ! 😆

Outstanding work!😎

Looks like we are getting the 429 Cobra Jet 🐍😎

Hmmm... 302, 351, OR 429 ????

Thx for the info Steve! 😎 Any chance the original AMT 69 Mustang could also be resurrected?

E-Mail sent, thx

The part numbering system that Henry designed way back when has been degraded beyond belief, basic part numbers are pretty much useless now. The catalog is a giant mess. I could go on for days......

I wish I could buy about 20 sets of those wheels & tires! 😎

I could use a few more..... 😆
