  1. A blueish color
  2. Due to the heavy flake I presume it was started in the 60s.
  3. Not really wanting to buy another kit to get the parts but might see if I can modify the hood.
  4. Almost there, battery and exhaust.and will be done
  5. My friend gave me another bag full of thrift store models and included were two ,67 Impalas,thinking about building one like my grandfather had which was a regular Impala and not a 427 SS so I am looking for a regular hood and hubcaps to rebuild one like his old car.
  6. It's a restoration and thought it was a promo but was told it's a Craftsman jr.
  7. The engine is the Lincoln from a old AMT T kit with a 4 speed added
  8. I picked it up missing the rest bumper and need to find it.
  9. Getting closer to being done,got the hood open so I can add more detail to the engine now.
  10. Its done.
  11. Never heard of the Craftsman jr series.
  12. Going to watch this rebuild as I have one that needs a rebuild too,I am thing flathead from the 36 or 40 pickup and the stock rims from the original 40 pickup kit if I can find some.
  13. I picked it up at a model swap meet missing the bumpers which I had,I think it's more like a promo since the hood does not open and the windshield frame is molded to the body.
  14. I wish I knew the history on this but I found out the original builder has passed away.
  15. It was in a bunch of parts I picked up a couple years ago,since it was mostly 60s parts I presume it was started in the 60s but never finished but tonight it is finally done. Revell 56 F 100 with the quarters from the Revell 57 Ranchero and the front from the AMT 50 Ford convertible kit. Hood was glued shut but it does have the engine from the 57 Ranchero the quarters were robbed from.
  16. Suspension is on and only need to find a driveshaft.
  17. Found them and will have one on the way soon.
  18. I have the cab coming from the Firestone truck so I think it has the 78 grille.
  19. I need to check the Mobius frame to see if it's long or short,it's from the Mercury M100.
  20. I do not think I have any Cleveland parts but do have a unfinished Ford NASCAR type race car I can check but really want a stock engine with no shiny parts.
  21. Well I actually need a 351-M but a Cleveland looks close enough, Trying to build a 78 F-150 I had years ago and it had that 351-M.
  22. I have a AMT mid 70s F350 coming and a unbuilt Mobius F 100 chassis that I would like to build like a truck I had years ago so are there anyone building regular 8 foot beds for that era of Ford trucks or will I have to take a couple of those F350 beds and make one myself. I had a 78 F 150 and would like to build one like it.
  23. Picked up a Mobius M100 parts kit missing the body so I have another FE but it has the 65/66 style valve covers.
  24. A shortened Revell 56 F 100 is being used and I picked up a couple beds for the floor,not sure on the suspension just yet as I need to see what I have in stock.
  25. I found two unbuilt FEs on eBay and have them on the way,one is from the newer 69 Galaxie kit and the other is from a Mobius 72 F350 so I should be getting what I need. I was looking at the engine that was in the 69 I got and it's a FE with cammer valve covers and all the valve covers I have are for a 65 or 66,with the Mobius engine I get a truck 4 speed for a future truck project and I have one in mind .
