Front and rear fascia, grille, hood, roof paint, wheels,seats, maybe some engine details...

Looks like the body was warped, w/ the windshield frame mashed down like that..

It's hideous and tacky, but in it's own way no worse than a lot of the nonsense that's been done in the 1:1 Pro Street style cars...

And funds...it appears Okey's operation was chronically undercapitalized..an effort like this requires a lot of capital.

Since Ford is a sponsor of Block's endeavours, obviously they are going to use a race car based on a current Ford product. It wouldn't make any sense to use an old car.

I have a bunch of unbuilt RoG, Tamiya and Fujimi Ferraris...want to build them eventually, and avoid red as much as possible.. I like the offbeat colors.

It is..must have been a promotional photo for the song back in the day..

It's interesting that after many decades Ts, As, and 32s remain popular for hot rodders. I assume the reason they were popular originally with rodders is they were at one time cheap and readily available compared to similar models from Chevy, Plymouth, etc?

Interesting...I've heard the song, never seen that pic...looks like a '65 or '66 convertible w/ a later hood, a 4dr ht left front door, and a '50s left front fender.

Sharp..looking forward to both of those.

'murdered out' is when everything is painted matte black, I think...

Great video...my favorite of his series so far is the one filmed at the old race track in France...Montlhery... Huh? That's silly...this car is a race car..as real as any other race car...like a NASCAR race car, Indy car, F1 car, drag car, etc...

Yes, the Cyclone has different quarter panels, front fenders and hood. I'd love to see Revell tool up a stock '68-69 Cyclone GT..one of the gaps in musclecar kits for 40+ years.

The 2nd and 3rd issues were around '04 and and '07 IIRC...both releases had red cars on the boxes..

Revell should update their website then...

IIRC, the Hardcastle & McCormick kit had a step bed like all the earlier MPC issues..the Fall Guy version (and the reissue about 10 years ago) were the only fleetside MPC Chevy/GMC truck kits of that generation.

The pattern I've observed is that if Revell says it is a July release, that means it will be at the preferred partner shops around the 25th of the month and everywhere else within about 2 weeks..i.e. early in the following month.

Happy Birthday, Luc!

Some sharp builds there...like the color and wheel choices..

Revell. http://www.revell.com/new.html

I assume it's just a straight reissue of the last issue. Not sure if the reissues had some parts deleted from the original ProModeler issue.

That gas pump looks very realistic.

Saw this article over the weekend..police stopped a guy driving a junker Pinto wagon that had a gas jug in place of the passenger seat and a hose connected from the jug to the carby. What a moron! http://jalopnik.com/5924130/how-was-anyone-driving-this-ridiculously-unsafe-car-on-the-highway/gallery/1?tag=lolcars

I remember him from 'Airwolf'...most recent film I saw him in was a small role in 'Red' a couple years ago..

Since it's been 80 years since the '32s were made and longer since the A's were made, can't imagine there are too many original ones left..
