Well, that's a unique way to recycle . You might wish to check out the gorgeous art prints that AMT used on their 1968 boxes ............... -
Anne, I'm in the diorama business. I've never seen a scale grass seed . I generally use a mixture of Rail road items , finely sifted dirt, sand , and some textured papers .

I noticed a "Bondo " deal on the rear lower quarter . Very interesting as we all know , most Ford's of that era usually rusted out in that same vicinity unless you lived in say Dallas Texas ....... Ya done good .

Truth be told , I never ever saw this kit ever released as a stock car. I saw a NASCAR version . As everyone else has said , I think you managed a great build out of it .

1970-1975... the sad years....
Eshaver replied to khier's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
I'm still hearing Recardo Montilbaun's voice dubbed over the "Corinthian Leather seats "....................... Gee, I wanna go to Fantasy island too! Of course the one I SHALL NEVER EVER FORGIVE , or FORGET is the 1979 Toyota commercial ; "America , YOU asked for it and YOU GOT IT , TOYOTA "! Yeah really ? Hey folks , I was very satisfied with my 1969 Econoline E-300 LWB Van 3spd , positraction , 240 six cylinder beast . I'd gotten it in a Sherrifs auction in Crown Point Indiana for a mere 300.00. it had woopdie do swivel seats , a heater , a WORKING cigarette lighter , Shaggy carpet and one of muh DELUXE Drink holders on da Mota cover . Where ya gonna put yer swivel seats in a Toyota anyway ???? HUH ? -
Terry, I'll be happy to put a word in for you !

Now if they could add a 60 Lincoln , a 59 Mercury, a 59 Pontiac , 58 Ford ..................

I've been doing my own decals for just this past year . Since I primarily do dioramas , My needs will differ as say a NASCAR. I have had GREAT success with a Kodak Bubble jet printer and a downloadable Document program known as Libre . The Libre program has many type fonts and can be had in Standard Black or "colored " depending upon you're tastes . One can also do a "High light " block in a word too. Putting photos from you're computer is as simple as selecting the pictures you want and then "Pasting" the same into the Libre program .

Very fitting color for that car. . You never see these cars being modeled anymore . I used to work on them when they were new and I always kind of wanted one of the 66 0r 67 models .

New Moebius Ford Pick-ups 1971 Ranger XLT AND 1969 Custom SWB
Eshaver replied to SteveG's topic in Truck Kit News & Reviews
Tim, from the looks of the test shot , probably not hard at all. Casey, I too would love to have a few sets of the "Mag style " covers in scale . I run a set of the same wheel covers on my 1978 F-100 stepside . -
Mike , seriously, Classic metal works is never going to be one of the "Mints " . However , with that said , they actually manufacture a decent product and they're a GREAT value for the dollar . I have several of the Classic metal Works cars as some subjects , ie 1941 Chevrolet Convertible is well done and looks nice built from a kit .

In addition to what both Dave and Junior mentioned , Let me pass on a tip I learned years ago . In the event you decide to do a car in a Vibrant White , ALWAYS undercoat it with a coat of Silver underneath . The end result WILL enhance White paint ................

I think I saw this on the "OTHER" model magazine forum. Great workmanship !
