That doesn't leave much beer money.

Like the flat primer paint look and the clean trim.

Like the monochromatic body finish and trim.

Great looking paint and realistic looking chassis finishes.

What a great gift for your friend's retirement. Both builds look great and cleanly built.

Beautiful paint and trim finishes. The engine detailing is very realistic looking. Like the added lighting.

Great looking build.

Beautiful paint finish and color. Clean looking interior and windows. Like the engine detailing.

Been following your beautiful paint work and detailing. Like the lighting, especially the speedometer in the dash.

One sad looking old car, and I mean that in the best way. This is why many states require annual vehicle inspections or should. Like the snow tires on the back.

Like the color and finish. The sedan delivery conversion looks great.

Like the paint effect. Sort of like making Lemon-aid out of Lemons so to say.

Interesting engine choice.

As you can see a car this size can be hard to park straight in most parking lots.

Great looking paint color and finish. Realistic looking body and interior proportions.

Glad to see this model getting built and the Thunderbolt theme especially. Personal favorite has always been the "teardrop" style hood on Ford drag cars. I recall the drag optioned Fairlanes of '66 vintage had a single center mounted hood scoop with the opening at the leading edge. There was a '66 Fairlane kit at one time with that style hood offered and that might be something to consider. The dual hood scoops found mostly on Mercury drag cars could be another thought. Build it the way that looks best to you and what you're wanting it to look like.

Great looking body and interior color finishes and combination. Like the engine detailing.

Can't tell from the pictures that you had any problems that you described. Classic looking shade of silver with a great finish and clean body trim. Excellent door hinge details in the picture. The interior has a very realistic looking finish.

Great looking paint color and finish. The light-colored interior works well with the dark blue body color. Like the wheel and tire setup.

Try Googling '66 Fairlane and see what pictures they have. I often do just this on any model just to see what has been done on 1:1 car and what the factory offered as well. Your mention of a different colored interior to complement the popular Vintage Burgandy body color you're considering. Remember see many of these that were built with an off white or cream-colored shade that Ford offered that looked nice against many of the colors Ford offered.

Great looking paint colors and finishes. Like the unusual body style.

Great realistic looking body finish and design.

Beautiful looking paint color and finish.

Beautiful paint and body trim. Great looking engine and chassis detailing. I agree, these were some of the most impressive racers that Ford built in the day.

Very realistic looking body damage and paint finishes. Like the overhead rack and the tools in the bed.
