  1. Is there some sort of filler on the trunk lid?
  2. Maybe Revell 72 Cutlass?
  3. Bet it got good MPG numbers in the EPA lab. Years ago I had a 78 Zephyr with a 4-cylinder/4-speed. A whopping 88 horsepower. Poor engine had to work really hard to keep up with traffic and drive in real-world conditions. I think I managed 20 MPG a couple of times on road trips. Bet the EPA MPG figures were better than reality. (I upgraded suspension and tires so it was fun to drive at least)
  4. Looking at the side trim and the trim around the taillights, this looks more like an 82 Cougar wagon.
  5. Years ago a friend purchased a 67 Chevy pickup that had a 73-ish Ford bed on it.
  6. This thread took a turn....
  7. I should dig my 65 out and take a look.
  8. It looks like the sail panel vents might be a separate piece. That would pave the way for a later 66 GT350 version.
  9. I agree. The fastback interior bucket is not the same as the one in the hardtop kit.
  10. Red 68 GTO hardtop. Red 65 Mustang hardtop with Cragars.
  11. It was difficult to remove the whitewall stickers from the backing sheet without stretching them.
  12. I have one of those in my collection. I was really surprised to find this kit in the Union packaging.
  13. I saw this in the parts/accessory department of a local ("local" = Van Nuys/Sherman Oaks) Mercedes-Benz dealership. It is 5-6 feet long. They had a white one too.
  14. Remember when most pool guys and gardeners drove El Caminos?
  15. No glass but Robert provides bucks to help form front and rear windows from clear styrene or acetate. That's what is in Bill's hand.
  16. 72 Challenger. It looked really long, low and sleek compared to the current model. 71 Impala 2-door Rolls-Royce Wraith Coupe. Matte bronze/black with blacked out trim. AMG Mercedes SLS 6.3 Gullwing Coupe. And a lot of more common upper end Mercedes and BMWs. I was in the affluent end of the San Fernando Valley.
  17. Not Grabber Green. Competition Green.
  18. A really nice white 56 Lincoln Premiere 4-door hardtop. "Grabber" blue Lamborghini Urus New-style Bentley Continental coupe and a new Bentley sedan.
  19. Driver Training class at my high school had a fleet of 70 Plymouth Sport Fury 4-doors. My parents had a 65 Mercury Colony Park and 68 Montego 2-door J-code.
  20. My brother had a gold one with black vinyl top and interior. 396/4-speed.
  21. 55 Buick 4-door. Turquoise and white. Very nice shape.
  22. I'm waiting to see what Scott Colmer does with the one I sold him. Meanwhile, I have an Airfix and a Heller kit here somewhere I should do something with.
