Very nice!!!!!!

It seems to me that this one of those kits most of us will be buying in multiples to do some interesting variants. I only hope that if Mobius does not do any more variants, then the aftermarket can do some resin parts, such as a 4x4 front drive axle and raised rear suspension for a H-D 4-wheel drive truck. A comprehensive, deatailed photoetch set would also be welcome. For the "super detailers among us, here are a couple of links that will be very helpful in planning your build: 1969 Ford Pickup Brochure: http://www.oldcarbrochures.com/static/NA/FMC%20Trucks-Vans/1969_Trucks-Vans/1969_Ford_Pickup_Brochure/dirindex.html 1971 Ford Pickup Brochure: http://www.oldcarbrochures.com/static/NA/FMC%20Trucks-Vans/1971_Trucks-Vans/1971_Ford_Pickup_Brochure/dirindex.html In looking at some of the photo Illustrations in these brochures, if you wanted to do the Bucket Seat option, the Revell '68 Mustang GT 2 'n 1 kit will give you the right seats. The original AMT '67 Ford Galaxie had the proper Full Wheel Covers, if you want to do something different. Also, the original AMT '69 Cobra had the proper 1/2 ton dog dish hubcaps. You are on your own for a set of steelies. Most of the AMT Ford Van kits, as well as the AMT 1970's Ford pick up kit has the alternative full wheel covers. The AMT '53 Ford can yield an accurate "Flareside" bed, with a little modification. Just a few ideas.

I, for one, am not at all concerned about whether or not this will be a "quality" kit. Judging from what Moebius has brought us in the past, I am sure that this kit will be right, and I can't wait for it, and I will be building it when it hits my grubby hands. I already have plans for it, down to the color combo. Back in 1982, I sold a customer a loaded, Red on Red Chevrolet Silverado Pickup. His trade in was an immaculate 1970 Ford F100 Sport Custom Pickup, which was a medium blue, with a white two-tone bottom and roof panel, and blue interior. I only wish I had a place to put that truck, and I would have bought it on the spot, even though I am not a Ford guy. That was one nice truck. It was just like this one, except that it had whitewall tires.

Wow!!! I still have an unbuilt one from over 20 years ago. I picked up a set of tail lamps from Missing Link, and I have an up-top from Time Machine Resins, which should fit with some modifications. I was thinking about cutting up an AMT '68 El Camino for a more detailed chassis and driveline, even though an AMT '69 442 will give you a virtual drop in chassis with much more detail. I have built a few hardtops over the years, with plans to do a Malibu hardtop like a friend on mine's car(dark blue/silver rockers/blue bench seat interior/350 Automatic), as well as a SS396 post, using Shawn Carpenter's excellent transkit. I only hope that AMT can do something with the Tail lamps, and remove the lower "Malibu" mouldings from the body.

Incredible. Brings back memories of Dad's '70. I may have to take a crack at one of those.

Nice work so far, and an excellent acquisition Randy!!!! This month's Muscle Car Review Magazine has a nice article on a Black Jade Metallic '69 Mustang GT.

That is so nice.

OW!!!!!!

Beautiful. It brings back memories when I saw the actual car race at M.I.R.

WOW!!!!!!!!

Bradley, I for one hold no grudge with you for expressing your opinion about the Mustang kit. I have mine, and I agreee that it need some work to make it more accurate. Mine has a few other issues (quality control), which I have contacted Revell for the replacement parts. I may 'raise" the roof on mine, as I have the time, skill and materials to do it. Thank you for alerting us to the kit's foibles. When I get mine started, I'll take a few pics. I may do it as an unmarked pursuit car.I have a few ideas for such a car.

It's nice to see someone who will put their money where their mouth is. Very nice work. You have backed up ypur criticism about Revell's body with excellent results.

Erik, So far your work looks fantastic. I cannot wait until you are finished.

Very nice!! I am doing a similar build, but with an original AMT '63, and as a GM Skunkworks car from '62-3, so it will have narrow (relatively) wheels and tires. You may be able to get a resin hood for that Trumpeter body.

As usual Antonio, beautiful work!!!!!! I hate to tell ya, but that is a '70, and not a '69.

Beautiful!!!!

Excellent job Tulio!!!!

Replicas and Miniatures Co. of MD has resin door handles in the line.

That's one you do not see too often. Excellent work!!!!!

Very nice!!!!!!!
