I think the Last Hit on the Falcon tooling was either '68 or '69. That might be what is left in the Toolbank.

What did you see on the road today?
stavanzer replied to Harry P.'s topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
On the way back from Avila Beach in SoCal, I saw 3 Tesla Cybertrucks, (one Stainless, one Blue Wrap, one Black wrap) a couple Dozen Tesla Cars, and a Auto Transport Truck with Four of those Chevy BrightDrop Electric Vans. Thanks Gary for ID'ing those. Fedex and Others are using those in Bakersfield, and I've a dozen of them on the road in last 6 weeks or so, -

Not to be argumentative, but What does "best" mean to you? I think the only Hardtop is the MPC Flip Nose, but That is nowhere near stock. The Best Body Shape might me Revell's (new-ish) Snap Kit. But is a Curbside. The Newer AMT '57 is massively detailed, but I've heard murmurs about subtle Shape Issues. The OG AMT '57 is a good kit, but not Great. More '57's have been built from that kit than any of the others. So, It is hard to say which kit is best. The Only Kit that is universally panned is the OG Monogram kit, tooled in the 1970's. What Details, Options, and Style are most important to you? There is no Best. Only what is Best for you. Sorry to have such a Wishy-Washy answer for you.

I build Military Aircraft as well as cars. I'll be happy to try to help you find answers to any questions you have. Alan -
https://www.italeri.com/en/article/858 Maybe even this month! I want one! I could never afford, or have room for the 1/12 kit. The smaller 1/24, is perfect.

I am too suspicious. I think he is a Fall Guy. They had to find Somebody. He is it.

We play the California Lottery & the Powerball, when they really large. For the cost of a couple packs of Smokes or some Starbucks, We can dream big for a week. The $40.00 or $50.00 bucks a year is worth it to me, and it lets my Wife dream a little longer. We both know we are stuck in California, (Kids and Grandkids), I can't afford to try to sell my house, and buy another much more expensive one, Cali Real Estate being what it is. So, that's why I play sometimes. (and Sadly, the California Motto is technically Correct. You Cannot Win a Lottery you don't buy tickets for)

Yes, I remember getting a few at a Junkstore in the early 1970's.

If they do, I hope then include Both Bodies, and the Over-the-Fender Headers,

stavanzer replied to Justin Porter's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
Okay, I want some. Does anybody know where I can find a parts list for him? I'm going to purchase some more stuff besides the resin Wheels. I had a catalog, but it is at least 15 years old. Thanks! -
1 to 1 Ford Wheel Question
stavanzer replied to stavanzer's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
Then I feel safe in using '40 Ford Wheels, on my '32 Phaeton build. Thank You, Bill for the straight skinny. -
That sounds good too, and a street driven blower is fun to look at, it can complicate every day driving. Good Choice!

I really like the stance you have gotten. -
AMT '63 Corvette - the quick easy slump buster that wasn't.

Excellent Build, and a great tribute to Your Father, and the Past!

Great Mock Up! The Yellow is a Good Choice. I'd advise doing what you have to do, to use that little Dodge "Red Ram" Hemi. It is a smaller engine and will look great in the Ford.

Great, Green, Ride! Good Show.
