  1. When was your order placed?
  2. They would have to retool the body and interior parts. The Bronco in question is a 92-96 model and the kit is a replica of the 80-86 version
  3. Looking forward to this as a kit. Also would it be possible at some time to get the front grille separately? I had a 66 Galaxie 500 2-door as my first car and it would be so cool to build a replica.
  4. I can't remember how many 69 "Z-28"s I've seen with big block engines in magazines or wherever...........
  5. Mine was the same except the pillars faced the outside of the box. It's like they tossed it in as an afterthought.
  6. The 1/12 Corvette has a tri-power 427.
  7. Read his post again.
  8. Sam, I'd like one of these when they are ready.
  9. The V6 was a Maserati engine, used in the Citroen SM
  10. Scale Equipment Limited make a nice set too. http://www.seltd.net/ez-catalog/X344897/24
  11. Cool! Thanks for posting the pics. Will need to find an alternative to the Pontiac grille bar though......
  12. Just a note to explain that this was not cancelled by the organizers. It was cancelled by the people who run the location. We were blindsided and not happy about this!
  13. Try the chassis from the AMT/MPC 69 Cutlass. Unless the wheelbase is different. Revell snap 77 Monte Carlo for the interior. You will have to extend the package tray.
  14. We were talking about this at our club meeting last night, that there might possibly be pre-painted versions of the new Foose kits available later, similar to the Camaro/Challenger/Corvette kits that Revell has released previously. Someone noted that there are no visible mold seams on the body of the FD-100.
  15. I think I have some of those Atlas Fairmonts too. Former 78 Zephyr 2-door sedan owner.
  16. I think Aoshima makes a wheel set that looks like those. Flat spokes. You would have to play with the offset/backspace though.
  17. I know he has been working on one and keep looking on his website to see if he has done it yet. I see something in his "In the works" section today and it is "ON HOLD".
  18. Nope. Sorry.
  19. The Lindberg kit mentioned was a Granada, not a Fairmont. The Futurattraction Fairmont is a Futura, and is a Pro Stock car with modified wheel wells. The caster sells a Zephyr grille for the kit if you want one.
  20. The big thing with TRX tires, in real life, was that they were not a "standard" size. They had a non-standard bead angle and were designed to use a "metric" wheel that would not accommodate 15- or 16-inch non-TRX tires.
  21. AMT 62 Corvette kit, molded on clear metalflake orange.
  22. Just for the record, All American Models cast the 67 or 68 Cougar in resin. I have one of these in my collection.
  23. Yes, the horizontal bar in the grille was only on the GTE, which came in Standard or XR 7 trim. Also the GTE had argent paint on the lower body, separated from the main color by a stainless steel molding. GTEs came with a 427 at first, later they had the 428.
