It's not working great for me, It's slower than ever. -

Is anything being done to correct this? It gets worse every day. -

SLOW SLOW SLOW! -
OK.

There are some ebay ads with pictures. These kits are going for between 70 and over 200 bucks.
-
I don't have the ability to send pictures. The kit is open, but complete (including both chrome trees), and in new condition. I think you can google it and get pictures.

I guess you're not really interested. Maybe it was just a joke. It's too bad that you can't reply.

HEY, YOUR PM IS FULL, CAN YOU HEAR ME???

What did you see on the road today?
RichCostello replied to Harry P.'s topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
That's the best looking one I've seen so far. -
Mine is still sitting on my bench in front of me, very close to finished. I started on the AMT 60 Ford pickup, and it's so nice to work on a kit that fits together nicely that I'm having a hard time going back to that Moebius nightmare, but I'll get it done soon. I'm trying to decide how to do that chrome trim along the top of the fenders and doors. Should I try BMF, or try to mask it and hit it with the chrome pen? Or maybe I'll just leave it as is like you did. I'm open to suggestions.

I am still looking to trade it.

There's no paint, wrap, or color, that can cover up that much UGLY. -
I'm building the same kit, and I'm at about the same place in the building process as you are (even the same color). It looks, to me, like your radiator is sitting too high also. The top of my radiator is below the brace, and the radiator hose is even with the top of the battery. I don't know if that has anything to do with your problem, but it makes me wonder if your hood will close tightly.

Same here.

It's a FORD. -
"Pro Stock" refers to drag racing, "Pro Street" is a street legal car that looks like it could be a drag car, usually tubbed with huge wheels/tires on the rear, and many times a blower, injector tubes, or a high rise intake with a couple big carbs sticking through the hood. The models you listed are "Pro Streets".

Anyone know a source for this color?

I like Krylon Short Cuts antique bronze. It's cheap, and looks pretty close to that color with a satin clear coat. -
AMT 1960 3-in-1 Ford F-100 Pickup Truck

Hobby Lobby has a spot with a label for this kit, so maybe they bought a ton of them to distribute across the country. It's about time they got something new on their shelves that's actually worth buying. -
I have this kit that, with my old man eyesight and fat finger dexterity, I don't think I can do it justice. It is a beautiful kit, and is in new, un-started condition. It is open, but looks to be complete with both shiney, and satin chrome trees. I'd consider trading it for a Galaxie Ltd 48 Chevy coupe, or sedan delivery, or Trumpeter 64 Falcon convertible, or Ranchero. U.S. only.

Mine also has a spot with a tag for the 71 Demon, besides the Ford pickup.
