Lovely replica of the old SWC Mustang. You nailed the look, and the paint looks just right. Beautiful model. Very well done.

Very nice build, and I'm really digging the survivor. They look great displayed together. Thanks for posting, this is really cool.

Great looking Barracuda. I love the steelies and dog dishes. Very nicely done.

The foil is looking good. During the body prep stage (before paint), it helps if you scribe around the window trims. Gives a clean line to follow with the knife blade during foiling. On some kits it's necessary, when the window trim is poorly (or not at all) defined.

Cool subject. Looking good so far. Should look good in red.

Sweet little midget. Nice detailing. Very cool!

Very cool Olds. I dig the style on this one. Love it.

Beautiful paint, and a nice clean build. Lovely work, and a great looking Deuce. Nice photography, too. Very well done.

Nice work. The kit builds up well. I had this kit in my hands once, many years ago. I didn't buy it because the box art put me off a bit. Seeing your build, I think I made the wrong decision. It's a good looking Ferrari, and you did a great job of it. Actually, I think throughout the late 70s-80s, Monogram did themselves a huge disservice with their box art. So many times I chose not to buy a Monogram kit from that era due to funky box art photos of the built up kit, only to find later that the kit actually looks much better in person than on the box top.

Gorgeous Porsche. Such raw beauty, and you captured it perfectly. Nice clean work. Very well done.

Stunning build, Charlie. Very cool style, and a masterful creation. Man, I would love to take that thing for a thrash. I bet it sounds great!

Bummer about the crazing. The new headlight screens are a huge improvement and look great.

Good looking Celica. I had a bit of a thing for these in the 80s. Still a good looking car, and you captured the vibe nicely. Well done.

Lovely Porsche. You did a beautiful job on it. Nice and clean. Top job! I’ve been wanting to do one of the Enthusiast Series Porsches myself. I have a 69 911 in the stash I’m anxious to get to soon. I’m feeling a bit inspired.

Good looking Shelby. Really digging that shade of blue. Very cool.

Turned out great, Kurt. A cool concept, with interesting and well executed mods and details. At the beginning of your build thread, I wasn't so sure about those wheels, but they are actually perfect for this build. Very cool, Kurt, and very well done.

Great looking Riv. Such an elegant car, and you've captured it nicely. Very cool.

Beautiful Charger. Your hard work and detailing has paid off handsomely. Very well done.

Beautiful work. Brilliant work on the finish. Things are looking great.

Interesting build. Looking good.

I haven't built the '57, but I built the '55 T-Bird when I was young. A very simple kit that went together easily. If I recall, the opening doors are straightforward, just follow the instructions carefully. If you get stuck, give a holler, but I think you find this kit a stress-free build.

Nice roof conversion. It gives the impression of a coupe, rather than a very large sedan. Nicely done.

Agreed. It sits perfectly.

Congratulations, Francis. Your tenacity and hard work have paid off handsomely in an incredible and stunning model. A work to truly be proud of. Like many others, I have enjoyed the journey, and learned some stuff along the way. Thank you for taking the time to fully document the process. I know it takes a lot of additional time and effort to do so, and given the time and effort already consumed by this project, there must have been times when it seemed like an unnecessary chore. We all appreciate it. Hat's off to you, sir, for such an impressive accomplishment. Cheers.
