  1. I have some late 50s spinner hub caps and white wall tires that will be going on,the front of the frame is messed up so I will have to graft a newer front suspension on it to keep it low and maybe a coil over type rear suspension. Its in a box now and not sure when I get to it but will have all the parts located when the time comes and since the hood is glued shut it will not get a detailed engine.
  2. Gathering parts to put it back together.
  3. Picked up a box today,now I am thinking about building the race version.
  4. The one with the later version looked like a real one and want to find one for my original version.
  5. I seen a later chopped top version that had a bed cover and was wondering if the original had one too.
  6. It's screaming at me to save it so I will.
  7. I bought a bunch of parts a couple years ago and this was in it,it's the combination of a Revell 56 F 100 and 57 Ranchero. It's just screaming save me even though I really do not like radical customs,I do not think it was ever finished.
  8. I picked up two unbuilt Monogram 36 Ford kits over the last couple years and yesterday was the first time I had them together and finally noticed it. Built a couple years apart.
  9. Looked at pics on both and can not tell the difference,need to find a grille insert.
  10. The original chassis is long gone,I did find a couple recent Revell 32 frames I can try in my parts stash.
  11. I have a complete body but no chassis and was wondering if anyone has ever put one togather on another chassis,I have heard horror stories about trying to put the chassis that came with it togather.
  12. Never seen that color on the 34 and will have to look for one.
  13. They came molded in colors that really did not need to be painted.
  14. This 60s 57 Ranchero arrived in the mail today,the rear bumper is off but came with it and built with no engine and the hood glued shut and hope I can get it open. I just happen to have two correct engines that I am going to build one out of and hopefully can get it installed.
  15. I am eyeing another partial kit that I can use for parts this time.
  16. The other old Monogram kits I like is the 40 Ford pickup,I want to get all of those stock rims and hubcaps I can get,I wish those parts would have came in the. 70s and newer versions.
  17. There is something about the 34 Ford coupe/convertible kit I can not get enough of,over the years I got one complete unbuilt kit and a bunch of partial built and parts kits and I got another. I have two partial builds going that need parts so I found what looked to be a very incomplete kit on eBay and got it cheap,it arrived yesterday and was surprised that it was only missing a few parts that I might use one that I started for the parts I need for this one. Part of the reason I grab all the opened kits is to get a few sets of those wire wheels which is hard,this kit looks to have all the outers and missing two inners but has all the hubcaps still on the tree.
  18. I have a few of those roadsters and might do something with one and did not know the age of them too.
  19. Working on the Monogram late 80s F 250 and it has aftermarket looking wheels but after further investigation they are 5 lugs so I found a set of resin 8 lug rims I forgot about,so does anyone know if anyone makes such a hubcap or was there ever kit made that would have them.
  20. Did not realize its that old.
  21. Looks like another trip to the hobby shop next week.
