I spent some time workin' on the 'Bird today.....
Here you can see my work bench
And here you can see where I painted the molded-in exhaust.
I used the ol' clicking ball point pen spring trick. You can see the kit-supplied springs versus the spring springs.....
Here's a link to my online album of some of my favorite builds of '49-'50 Fords done by other people.

How did your ex-wife destroy your collection? I ask because it's my worst fear. It's probably why I stay married and give her whatever she asks for.
:lol:
Ok, I'll bite. I've got this Monogram '58 T-bird that's been painted and has been stalled and sitting now for way too long. It's time to get 'er on the bench and finish 'er up. This is the perfect build thread to make sure that happens.
I've never destroyed one but I could have for sure. I'm usually at the bench working away and I'll start letting the cusswords flow like Regan in the Excorcist. My wife will be passing by and will stop and look down at me with eyes as big as golf balls and she'll ask why I don't find a hobby with less stress.........she just doesn't get it.
