Tim I have been building since I got back into the hobby in 1990/91. I am still a box stock builder today. That has been my strength is to use what comes in the kit. Paint, foil and glue is all I use that is not in the kit. Everyone was a beginner at some point..
Richard, I always thought that was a great looking grill when ford came out with that style, it was very popular. Just wondering if you plan on leaving the letters on the hood.
