True survivor...gotta love vintage Kustoms.

Cool color choice...and welcome to MCM.

Coolness... Here's a little tip I read some wheres....drag a Q-tip on the eves/car to simulate spider webs.

Jimmy's '59 Ford Country Sedan Wagon. Body only..donor kit was the '59 Ford w/retractable top. Jimmy's '57 Ford Wagon James aka JoKer

Car Show trunk insert... Pencil layout cut outs...sand ...primer installed.. Lid stays closed with the aid of a strong small magnet from Harbor Freight in the gas tank and a metal washer glued to bottom of the sunken plate holder. Everything clears the hinges ...whop whop ! Next update is the interior work.... Kustoms..built for comfort not speed.

Thanks for posting this wonderful tip Jim.. I'm grinning ear to ear....LOL Thank John for us too

Yay me !....found it ! Thanks for the link Mark/Grumpa... and subscribed..for future reference. Thanks

Thanks for posting up the garage pixs.. Couldn't find the page. The small town vibe in it and the work bench got me grinning..in a good way. Tickled my memory cells.

Yup...got my info on a IMC /Union '48 Ford from that link a buddy posted on the H.A.M.B. (Thanks Ed)

Welcome to MCM Tom...glad you used the link.

Glad you found your way over here from the H.A.M.B. Good to have you here on MCM Tom. James aka JoKer

Dude...that '59 rocks! Great save on the windshield ..curved glass and all and of course the kit itself. The garage is something else...do you have a build link for it? Thanks for sharing this vintage kit .

Agreed...love the red line slicks

"That's good ...one less thing" ... Forrest Gump Nothing feels better than being at home for recovery time. Glad to have you back.

Thanks Y'all... Here's a pix of the Union / IMC after a shot of primer. The white primer on the top showed me some flaws and it got attacked with sandpaper and water. Weatherman is calling for some PM showers here in the Ol' Dominion so I'll shoot some more primer in a bit. The Model Masters Citrus Yellow Metallic is going to have to wait.. Thanks Andre/Scalper for the paint info. The styrene is fragile on this ol kit...developed stress cracks on the trunk lid while sanding down the primer. The front bumper valance and the rear valance got stress cracks too.. Just how old is this Ol' Dog ? Anyhoo...added new styrene under the bumper valances for strength . Made new hinges for the doors (gluebomb) to make them operational. And the seams were checked for paint clearance. yada yada yada

S T U N N E R ! ! !
