Need to have the hood ornaments done for the 1977- 79 cougar. The artwork is complete. Thanks. Paul

Getting the shapes correct. The roof and rear body is grafted from the 66 Ford wagon. For sure doing the Squire, am looking into creating the standard grill to do the base wagon. Corrected the A pillar shapes that were off on the 66. Amazing how far off the wheel openings were.

Thanks everyone!

Can't wait Tom that is awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Maybe a 70- 72 Monte Carlo rear bumper would be a good starting point.

Thanks guys!

Thanks! It started as a cleanly built kit.

Beware of the 55s, they are made out of acetate and warp badly. The 56s were styrene.

Thanks all!! I think the hubcaps were meant to represent the 56s but lack the depth. Jean-Philippe your 73 Eldorado is gorgeous!

Revell 1/25 Custom Lowrider Cadillac Review

Here's a few pics of the completed body. The only thing left to do is add the front bumper rub strips. -
Hi Jim, yes not thinking it would be a big seller. Would have to be a complete kit as I believe the wheelbase is longer than the 65 kit. Also, the promo body I started with is very very brittle. If you look at it wrong another area shatters. Have beefed it up considerably from the back side but still would probably break again during the mold making process.

Just got mine. nice kit by why the 68 Galaxie front seat?

Thank you all very much!

This was built using a Modelhaus Fleetwood to start with. Grafted in the area surrounding the conv top base from a Monogram 59 Cad. The interior was masterfully scratch built by a good friend. Factory colors and YES a Lavender top was available on an Eldorado!

Wasn't this kit created around the time Monogram merged with Palmer? -
