  1. The flip nose kit looks a little cheesy but not sure if I have all the parts,since its supposed to be a gasser I was expecting a straight axle but it has the stock front suspension.
  2. It looks like I will have to go resin to get a correct six for the Falcon Ranchero I want to build,some how I ended up with a Pontiac half 8 and need to find something to put it in and do have a Lindbergh slant six for my next Dodge truck project.
  3. I have two versions.one is with the tilt front end and the other is the street machine version. I am wanting to build a sleeper version using a Caddy or Olds engine but neither has a stock hood,I will most likely just fill the hole in the hood on the street machine version but was it ever offered with a stock hood.
  4. In the UK was there any model manufactures making kits of the vehicles not exported to the states,there is a mid 50s Commer cabover I would like to build and would like to have the real thing too
  5. Let the Bus Grease Monkey know they are made and they might sell a bunch,if anyone does not know about him he has one and likes to work on those old buses and has videos on You tube.
  6. I would like to see a 2 and 4 door waging (non Nomad) or a sedan delivery.
  7. I would like to get that kit for the lowered suspension.
  8. Never knew this kit was made.
  9. I will probably never build it and thinking about keeping the suspension off of it.
  10. The one thing I did not like about this kit is no gas tank like a 32 should have,I took the tank off a AMT to make it look a little more correct.
  11. I have a 72? Mercury Monterey that I will one day do something with when I get bored.
  12. Do not know where I got that 4 speed.
  13. Picked it up minus the engine so I picked up a junket pre painted 58 Edsel so I grabbed the FE out of it and added a 4 speed.
  14. I have never seen one and only heard about them,power could have been exaggerated some.
  15. It was the police interceptor engine and had solid lifters and I think header like exhaust manifolds.
  16. Cut the auto trans off the Edsel FE and got a 4 speed ready to go on,the other FE is 3/4 there so I will gather the parts to make it look like a 360 HP 352 for the next project.
  17. Its the Ford base body so it has the FE.
  18. Forgot I had a junker 58 Edsel so that is what the 57 is going to get and will find the 60 kit when I build a 56 kit,time to use up what I have before buying anything.
  19. Is the trans on one of the engines in that 60 kit have a 3 speed o/d,the one I have had that trans that I used on a Y block. I do have a couple 390s from the 34 p/u kits but want one a little more detailed.
  20. I am building a AMT 57 Ford that I would like to build that had one of those 352s swapped in,I have a really nice FE that I do not know what it came from bit missing parts so what kit has a nice FE engine I could used.
  21. Picked this up at a swapmeet this weekend,did not know a 4x4 version was made and built the 2wd version back on 78.
  22. I was curious if any were made since I never seen one.
  23. I am going to have a bunch of parts and projects/parts cars I will not be needing and will post pics when I am able to go through all of it..
  24. I picked up a rebuilder and was thinking about making it 2wd so could they have came that way from the factory,would like to make it stock and even thinking about using the Chevy II six and make it a cheap version. I know the 73 and up could be 2wd but do not ever remember the early ones coming that way.
