  1. The 345 CI 4-barrel V8 is complete with wiring and an ignition coil.
  2. Thanks Jeff! I hope the decals are still good as well. I separated the parts that I have to paint flat black. The front grille, gas cap and the bumpers. The engine is nearing completion.
  3. Thank you Donato, David and Carl! This is the only kit that I have seen with a standard engine and not the optional big block, big horsepower engine.
  4. Thank you David, Stuart, Michael, Mike, Bob and Rusty! I'm surprised that this model had the small block engine in it. Usually, it is a big block engine. Possibly a 409!
  5. There are no mold lines on the body! Otherwise, I would paint it!
  6. I assembled the wheels and tires and the basic engine which I will paint red. I am also prepping the body for decals and clearcoat.
  7. I will show my latest build. 2010 Ford F-150 Raptor. Painted with Testors Hemi Orange and built out-of-box.
  8. I just finished this last week. '63 Impala SS with a 327 4 barrel engine and a 4 speed trans. It is painted with Dupli-Color Light Blue Metallic paint inside and out.
  9. I won this kit at auction for $5. Going to clearcoat the body once I add the stripe decals to it.
  10. Thank you Chris and Donato!
  11. Thank you Bertrand and Larry!
  12. Thank you Shawn, Todd and Carl!
  13. This is my '65 Lincoln painted with Tamiya TS-50 Mica Blue with a Dupli-Color Light Blue Metallic interior. I installed an automatic headlight control on the center dash and telephones on the floor.
  14. I finished my Lincoln Continental Convertible. It was built box stock with the exception of the automatic headlight control on the center of the dash and the phones on the floor.

  15. Thanks Carl and Bob! I try to add whatever is in the box. Mostly my parts box, but the wheel trim rings are the only parts that I have added.
  16. Thanks Carl!
  17. After looking at photos of the Lincoln crest, I drilled a hole in the hood for the crest and glued it in. There is no indication of the crest installation on the instruction sheet. The hood doesn't open now and I figured out why, there is a notch on the forward panel before the hood, above the grille and this is the mounting point of the crest. Damn instructions!
  18. Thanks Bob! I just took apart the interior to rearrange the fire bottle. Now it looks better.
  19. Been working interior of the truck this evening, Tach, extra gauges, floor shifter, fire bottle, rear view mirror. Pretty well, stocked!
  20. I have been working on the '60 F-100 off and on for the last several days. I have lowered the front end of the truck to its final position. The engine has been painted, assembled and wired.
  21. Thanks Michael and Carl!
  22. The Lincoln has been painted and the chassis and motor have been assembled. Gosh!!! I even got the exhaust manifolds to line up with the exhaust pipes.
