  1. Pure speculation by the usual posters
  2. Yes, it's in their national ad, published in newspapers on Sunday.
  3. Saturday I saw a "Mack" pickup on the freeway. It looked like a scaled down 50s Mack tractor. Sort of like this (the one I saw was red and a bit smaller):
  4. Nice work on that Cougar! And yes, so many variations. I have a 1:1 69 XR 7 and am a member of a local Cougar club. Hard to imagine all the variations in the full-size cars.
  5. The OHC six was also used in the Tempest, and there was a Sprint version with the 4-barrel carb engine.
  6. My parents bought a 59 Mercury Monterey 4-door. My Dad had to add on to the garage so the car would fit inside. When we moved to California the car barely fit in the garage at the new house.
  7. Yes. Just scribe around the engine compartment insert with the backside of an X-acto knife tip until it comes loose.
  8. On the actual cars, the difference in the wheelbase is behind the front seats. Mustang Carpet fits in a Cougar. BTW the engine compartment from the AMT 67 Mustang fits the AMT 69 Cougar nicely. Cut out, clean up the edges, add a couple of strips of Evergreen on the sides and install in the Cougar. I used the front portion of the Mustang chassis and rear portion of the Cougar chassis in my build. Can't remember where the splice is.
  9. My daughter had a 2005 Focus sedan. It was reliable and economical and it saved her life. One night she flipped (not rolled) the car. It was totally destroyed but protected her. She emerged with minor injuries.
  10. Missing Link cast the engine compartment insert.
  11. Bobcat was the Mercury version of the Pinto.
  12. Duplicate. Please remove.
  13. Watch out. Someone is bound to complain about your choice of wheels......
  14. A friend of mine has a Q code 72 Cougar. It moves pretty well.
  15. LOL. Gotta complain about something.
  16. New Aston Martin, big Bentley sedan, Maserati sedan, Cayenne and a couple of Lexus SUVs in some sort of procession on the freeway. All had their flashers on and were driving together in a line.
  17. For sure AMT has reissued the 1/20 Toyota and Nissan pickup kits.
  18. Here's one. (insert Bender's catch phrase here)
  19. There has been a listing of a Missing Link 68 LTD on ebay lately but the price is really steep.
  20. Well that's USUALLY the best way to find stuff that has been posted in the forums previously. I apologize for the inconvenience but that's what I would have to have done to find you the exact thread you might want to see. I honestly thought it would be easier to find.
  21. Scroll to the top of the page, type "modelhaus" where it says SEARCH, then click the little magnifying glass.
  22. There is a lot of discussion about this elsewhere in the forum.
