    Testors lacquers are probably more user friendly than their enamels and require no priming. Great color selection too.

    Sharp was the first word that came to mind for me too. It really pops!

    Dave likes it too! Love the color choice, and superb execution.

    I'm never disappointed when I open your posts, Tulio. This time I was completely blown away. Stellar builds!
  5. Dave Darby
    Uber nice conversion and execution.

    The Mod Rod/Roadster is what's left of the Ala Kart kit. You cannot build Don Tognotti's King T from the 25 T kit. It was a 1913 Model T tooled by MPC. Totally different tool that was eventually modified to create other show rod kits.

    I like it a lot. The only thing I would change is to add some period correct chrome or mag wheels. Very nice looking build.

    Always loved those bubbletop Falcons. I owned an early 62 like that too. (Mid year they changed to the square back roof they used through 65.) Gorgeous build Marc!

    Actually the 57 frame lasted through 1964. It's been said Ford only had something like 10 different full sized frame revisions. The Model T, the Model A, the one year only 32, 33-34, 36-40, 41-48, 49-56, 57-64, 65-78, then the 79-up. That said. I agree. Another gorgeous pair of builds from Tulio.

    Looks great. I see you spent some time and filled in the bumper bracket slots too. Nice touch. I like it.

    Bad to the Bone!

    Looks great! I wonder if the AMT 36 Roadster windshield would fit that.

    Looks great. Love Grand Sport Vetted. You did it proud.
  14. Dave Darby
    While it isn't a coupe, it sure is off the rails cool and creative!
  15. Dave Darby
    Great! Can you share this one one on Scale Survivors?
  16. Dave Darby
    I love it! Are you on Facebook by any chance?

    Stock exhaust manifolds and crossover pipe are molded to the engine. These go with the molded single system Greg mentioned.

    Nope. It's a Lindberg.
  20. Dave Darby
    You beat me to it! Nice work Tulio!
  21. Dave Darby
    Yeah it did have a bit of a broken spring look. Looks great now.

    I've only seen the Lindberg 40s in pink or blue. Anybody seen a Lindberg 40 kit molded in white? This one has no louvers, like the blue one in a previous post.

    That sedan kit is not out. The body insert was moved over to the Vicky/Phaeton tool in the mid 1970s for one run and hasn't been seen since. The only 32 Ford AMT currently has available is the Victoria, which is a completely different body. Google is your friend, Bob. Please Research before you post misinformation.

    I don't know that there is much demand for the newer bottles. 20 and 30 cents are 70s and 80s era. The real money is in the old 50s - 60s bottles.

    If you use their airbrush thinner they dry much faster and harder. I often times mix in a drop or two of that thinner in a little paint in a cap when I brush paint with it, too.
