What's a Fargo?  Is that what this truck was called in Canada?

Fargo's were also sold here in Australia, I don't know what year they stopped. Found this on google (I'm not part of FB)

All very nice, wouldn't like to have the rear suspension collapse with that fuel tank on #21

thank you  i was not going for the allan moffat xa sedan but a normal everyday non racing  xa sedan  i did like the black hood and lower body paint against the red  paint 
you can get one printed from to bodly go 3d printed models on facebook  he also has a ford falcon xb 500 4 door and soon a xb gt 4 door a xc 4 door and a xc fairmount 4 door 

Thanks Michelle, I posted that pic just to show how "off" the side windows are. I agree, these cars look good in these colours. I'm not part of FB but thank you. There was someone doing a 4 door conversion awhile ago that incorporated the Aoshima kit, I missed out on that one. The Parts Box does an XB but they're 1/25.

Very nice work on an iconic Aussie car. 

As Spex84 said, some body filler to remove the transition lines especially in the roof & boot (trunk) lid. As you can see by the pic the side windows need some help. The picture is of a GTHO Phase 4, one of 4 made. 

Were did you acquire this please. I can see a Mad Max Interceptor to go with my Pursuit Specials.

very cool  i had to go with this diecast cause it was only 24 dollars usd compared the aoshima road warrior kits which were between 100-200 dollars usd 

Thankfully I bought mine many years ago when they were still cheap, the prices they are going for now is ridiculous.

[Body putty]

I sometimes use superglue & talcum powder for body filler, only problem I've found with it is, the longer it sits the harder it gets. I used to use superglue & baking soda, but it gives of vapours that strips kit chrome. 

[KENWORTH K100 AERODYNE]

This is being built with the the AMT kit.

A very good friend of mine milled the grill surround & headlight housings (I still got some work to do on them) & the back of the bumper, he also machined the blind spot mirrors & fuel tank caps . The bumper & mirrors, I done by hand, got to make another bumper but Bear from the 1/32 BJ kit as a trade is worth it, scales out well. I machined the horns, fuel tanks, air cleaner parts & the twin tanks that go on the battery box. 

The grill is a CTM piece, the KW grill emblem was cut from a Double Take grill, not to happy with the foil & paint job I done so it will get redone when I finish sanding & polishing the grill surround. 

The rims are Micro Nitro with Ben Wicker hubs. 

5 years building & counting.
