It's great to see things back on track i love this mag and like having the real thing in my hands can't wait for the next one and now that the other guy is no longer printing a model car mag you should have twice the people buying yours maybe even turning it in to a every month thing. -
That is great awesome it's really coming along very nice build.
-
WoW.! i can't believe how awesome this one came out i want to do both the 69 and 70 yours is great very nice.

LOL i'm 68 and i have 3 kits that i have been working on that keep stalling me out for 35 years i have built many in between just can't seem to get these 3 done. I love what you have done so far it looks awesome i think your just about at the finish line with this one awesome so far. I started to build when i was 10 my first car was the AMT 3-in-1 1962 Ford Fairlane i still have the model the box and the extra parts a good modeler never throughs anything out LOL.!!!
-
Awesome i love it great build.!!!
-
The only ones that would be in the Ford line that is in model from would be the AMT 71 T-Bird or the 73 AMT Cougar or if you can get your hands on a JoHan 72 Gran Torino.

Awesome build i love the color and wheels i hope you keep posting more.!!
-
Awesome build the colors are spot on for the 70's i think i had 3 dark brown cars in the 70's it was a great look then.

I got my header from Clifford to put a true dual pipe system on the car it sounds like a 289 or 302 till up open the hood people just look and i smile they have the carb plate for the webber but they charge $589 for the carb when the one i had got some big problems is when i went right to webber on line and got the carb for $119 bucks and they set them up for a 6 at the factory for you.
-
Awesome save i have one sitting in a box for 8 years now it's in bad shape but if it turns out half as good as yours i will be very happy funny i was going with a med blue to.

The factory 1br carb are up there in price but you can have them rebuilt for around $90 bucks or do what i did i got the simple plate that just bolts right to the log intake and put a webber 2br 36/38 it's all a bolt on deal i went right to Webber and got the carb for $119.00 and the plate from clifford for $70.00 and it was one of the things that brought up the HP as well.

Thanks that was one of the things that brought Mr Gene Winfield to look at the car and i have always had a thing for 6's you can do a lot with them this one is built up a bit that took it from the factory 120HP to 185HP not a lot but good enough to sound like a V-8 i have a friend that has a 65 Cuda with the slant 6 in it he built it up a bit to it's a one sweet car his is gold with the black inside and the black strip down the center of the car.

Hi i am also rebuilding a 63 and now that Modelhause is gone it is very hard to find replacement parts for AMT kits BUT ! with this one you have a little hope i just needed all the chrome and the front pan there is one of the AFX AMT/Model King drag kits that was made from the 63 Tempest kit the hood and all the chrome and grill and head lites and pans and glass is all stock find one of those and your good i found one 2 mounts on spotlighthobbys.com i payed $ 35.00 for it but it was worth it to do a great old kit like this one good luck.
