    Holy cow, that build is superb in every way! I've always liked the '62 Dodge, and I built the convertible back in the early '80s. I painted it red to match Sylvester's car in Its A Mad Mad Mad Mad World. One of my favorite cars in one of my favorite movies.

    I've thought about doing the Custom Mustang for a long time, down to the spectraflame paint. I think the MPC version of the kit even came with that hood.

    It's a 1:64 Johnny Lightning. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Johnny-lightning-69-Chevy-Blazer-Boondocker-White-Lightning-rubber-tires-LOOSE-/121955573462?hash=item1c651e5ed6:g:-v8AAOSwcBhWW8J5

    Hey, if that wiper motor is carefully removed from the Moebius firewall, it can be used on the Revell '90 Mustang LX, which doesn't come with one. So it's actually a free gift.

    This exact scenario has happened to me, three times or more, but in the 1:1 car world. Someone will PM or email me with an abrupt technical question, I think to myself, "And you are..." answer it nicely and completely anyway, never get a word of thanks, and he'll do it again a couple of more times until I either ignore him or tell him to ask someone else that doesn't mind rudeness in exchange for generosity. But most folks are very nice and appreciative, and it's noteworthy that I've yet to run into this type in the model world.

    True, but I didn't mention that because that style export brace was offered for the '64-'65 Falcon and Comet when the cars were new - and you can source reproductions from the parts vendors. Here is one installed above the stock braces, but most owners cut the original braces out to use the new brace.

    Me too. Probably more than one.

    It all looks really good; however, not to be a rivet counter, but the upper firewall is a bit off. The kit depicts an engine compartment mounted wiper motor, but the car has the motor mounted behind the dash inside the car. So that area will have to be smoothed to match the 1:1. The '66-up Comet/Fairlane did have the wiper motor there.

    This car is straight-up eye candy, and still 100% relevant today. I hope it was finished, it didn't have far to go.

    Looks really nice!

    Very nice replica.

    The coolest. It looks just like what most of the '70s street freak builders had in mind, and would have built if they could have.

    Those wheel covers are in the AMT Ford Phantom van kit.

    I have a collection of scrap bits for the really small stuff and "touch ups". I hardly toss any of it.

    Wow, wow, and more wow. This is shaping up to be an absolute stunner. Love everything! Hate nothing!

    Very, very nice. I have a close affinity for box Panthers, as we had a new '79 LTD-S (two headlight, for those who aren't familiar) wagon, and that was my favorite family bus growing up.
