  7. Hi guys, here is one of my latest build, an good old AMT GT500 kit, mostly box stock except the the side chrome molding, some more stuff under the hood, one of the main modification is that I seperate the grill from the bumper, dechromed it, and painted body color with just the surrounding chromed. Fog light has been drilled and got metal axle in. Hubcaps are from Revell. Color is an authentic Ford color spray by paint gun.
  8. Hi guys, it's a long time I haven't post anything here. Here is my latest, a 69 Ford Stepside. Starting as a model King/Moebius kit, I've changed the rear bed with an AMT one, otherwise it's box stock, there's a little surprise under the hood : a 427ci from a Thunderbolt The idea of this build came from an old Matchbox toy I've got when young. Hope you'll like it
  9. Very nice rendition of this iconic car
  10. One of the nicest build of this kit I've seen for a long time !!
  11. Very nice Oldsmobile, the perfect grocery getters
  12. Nice resto, where have you find the "Grand sport" marking on the blue one ?
  13. Superb, and the 2 tone colors is perfect !!!
  14. Beautiful as always with your build, mag 500 wheels are a nice add !!
  15. Thanks for the nice comments, I ve had this kit for years and built several on my young days but get tired of it at a moment until I saw an old b&w movie where cars were provide by Ford and it gives me inspiration to build this one ?
  16. Some more pics :
  17. Hi guys, Here is my last build, an AMT 56 Ford Victoria, simply box stock except the skirts with scratch chrome molding, to me it's really something missing on this kit, the car looks too "small" without them. Spray can paint without any clear coat, just polished. Hope you'll like it
  18. Thanks for the nice comments !! Glad you like it !!!
  19. Hi guys, Here is my last project finally done : a Dick Landy Dodge 1965 D700 race car hauler and the Hemi Dart. It's a long time project which I stopped during a few years and get back to it to bring at a car show next week end. It starts life as an AMT Ford Louisville with a RMR resin cab, both were highly modified, cab gets home made truck fender, Fireball Modelworks doors handle, MCG emblems, resin wheels, scratch fuel tank, rear platform was modified to look like the 1/1, engine was replace for a Dodge big block of course :), cab decals designed by a good friend of mine The Hemi Dart is a Revell kit, with correct Dodge A100 seats, Charger steering wheel, correct painted Hemi to look like the Landy's Dart one. Believe me it was a hard project as it was very hard to find good pictures of the truck, finally a friend of mine bought the book of the story of Dick Landy which helps me to have some nice view about it. Didn't know where to post it between Big Rig or Light commercial so..... Hope you will like it
