ISO a '57 Ford F100 Truck Grille

Ain't it beautiful? -
Years ago, I bought this raggedy gluebomb. I fixed everything, got a hood and grille from Missing Link, and now it's in primer. I'd love to have a new kit at today's pricing, but I'm convinced that's not happening. The last Nascar 71 Cyclone I bought had a set of stock 71 Cyclone Spoiler decals. It's on my list to bring back. I have a nice 429/C6 to put in it.

1960 Ford P/U alternate grilles
Ron Hamilton replied to 1st 700 Quad's topic in Truck Aftermarket / Resin / 3D Printed
I'm in complete agreement with you, as I bought the same setup for a future project. Also I saw on Facebook that Texas3DCustoms is doing a transkit to convert the AMT 60 Ford Pickup to a 57. From the photo of the prototype, it looks excellent. I'd like to see a 58 and a 59 myself. -
Moebius Official Announcement 1964 Mercury Comets
Ron Hamilton replied to Erik Solie's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
When I bought my Mobieus 65 Comet Cyclone, I took the body out and looked it over and compared it to my original AMT 64 Comet Caliente. Since I noticed there were some differences, I decided to look at photos of 65 Comets on the internet. I decided that the AMT roof was more true to the car, but the Mobieus roof was not too far off. I did a little "bodywork on the sail panels, and the rear part of the roof, and it was fine. Also I adjusted the stance to my liking I'm going to be a customer for the Mobieus 64 Cyclone, as I will make adjustments where necessary. -
The AMT 71 Charger R/T kits had a split bench seat with a center armrest. When I did my Hemi Charger model, I did it as a replica of an actual car that had Bucket Seats with the "buddy" seat/ center armrest. I reupholstered the AMT 71 Duster bucket seats and the AMT Dodge Charger kit back seat to match the factory pattern. I cut up the kit bench seat. and added sheet and half round styrene to make an accurate "Buddy Seat)

MPC Super Charger - 1974 Charger rundown
Ron Hamilton replied to CapSat 6's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
Now I know that I wasn't crazy for buying a stock 74 Charger body for my used 74 Super Charger built-up I got from a good friend. Also, I bought a resin flat and domed hood, proper center cap rallye wheels, and Keith Marks Charger Rallye decals. I also have a mint in box 73 Charger kit. I'm tempted to re-do the guts, using the AMT 71 Charger R/T. I'm glad I bought some extra 71 Charger kits. I still have a 72 Rallye to resurrect. -
I haven't picked up my kits yet, but I did get some grilles from Canuck 3D for my.projects. I sold a few of them as new and used cars when they were new. I even had a black and silver one for a demonstrator in 1981. I'm building a model of that, but I'm going to bring it to 2025.. I have several sers of 3D printed engines and wheels and tires. I'm so glad this kit is what it is.
