They could be ordered either way or in combination, just extra money. Looks great either way.
-
Also like the color. Painted T-Top roof panels rather than tinted glass? Exhaust looks like it has seen a few mid-west winters with salted roads.

Do you also have 1:1 project cars?

The generator brushes still look good from the outside. We used to just "dress" the armature with a little emery cloth when replacing the brushes, lucky I guess as never had a problem doing it that way. -
Great looking paint color and finish. Clean body trim.

Surprised no one caught that issue in the test shots.

1963 Ford F100 Flareside
espo replied to Chuck Most's topic in Model Trucks: Pickups, Vans, SUVs, Light Commercial
The step-side body style is a favorite and the beautiful load paint finish looks great. Great engine choice. Perfect stance. -
1965 Ford F100 Styleside Short Box

Great looking paint color and finish. The Olds engine looks at home here. The clean body trim and stance make a nice-looking driver. -
1972 Ford F100 "Iron Man"
espo replied to Chuck Most's topic in Model Trucks: Pickups, Vans, SUVs, Light Commercial
Like the different color combination and the finish looks great. The engine just does fit. The stance along with the wheel & tire combo looks perfect. -
Beautiful paint and body trim. Clean looking interior and engine.
-
Great looking paint finish and color. The chopped top is in good proportion to the body. Like how you made your wheels.
-
Great looking paint color and finish. The interior colors go well with the body. Like the engine and chassis detailing.

My Bronco “Penny”
espo replied to James2's topic in Model Trucks: Pickups, Vans, SUVs, Light Commercial
Great attention to the smallest detail and finishes. The paint color looks great and a very smooth finish. Enjoyed watching the chassis portion of your build, I now know where to get the goodies for any future Broncho I might do. -
Great explanation of all you have done on this build. Can be hard sometimes to fully appreciate what all has been done by looking at only photos. Like the purposeful look and clean finishes. I agree with you on the old Pontiac 8 lug wheel and brakes appearance.

In the past when trim lines are faint and would disappear with any painting, I would cut a defining outline of where the moldings are and use that as a guide when it was time to foil or paint the trim you want.

What did you see on the road today?
espo replied to Harry P.'s topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
The Falcon looks salvageable. The T-Bird front end maybe what's left of a parts car, was there an old and maybe closed body shop in the area. -
Some of our for fathers used their heads and would build something with this type of thought prosses knowing how different materials would react to weather and other influences. Now we just through something up with no consideration to the effects of our surroundings.

Under a Heat Advisory until Thursday of next week. Did our foraging early yesterday and home before noon. Only going outside to refill the bird feeder and get the mail till then.

Having fought this battle recently myself and have lost 40 + pounds this last year going from 3X to a very comfortable fitting 2X. Diet has played a very large part since I'm a cookie and sweets hound. I tend to eat more breads than I should but do enjoy dipping bread in Olive Oil with fresh baked Garlic added. Learned to stop with the Ice Cream every night and have gone to just two meals a day with better foods and salads. In the last year we have been going to a freebie exercise class for Seniors at the local Library. Also joined a Snap Fitness Gym in our area. They have discounts for what is known as Silver Slippers for those of us of an advanced age. Great array of equipment and free weights to play with. 30 minutes on a life cycle bike will get your heart started in the morning and will also take the pounds off nicely. Can't tell you how much better I feal now, especially when I look at my pictures from last year's birthday to now.

Great looking paint color and like the tinted-out windows. Like the stance.
-
Beautiful looking replica.
-
Great looking build and like the color scheme. Interested in the basic body source having ordered a new '68 Chevy Bel Air two-door long ago. Like the chassis detailing.
-
Great looking cruiser. Like seeing how different agencies would do their paint jobs. Like the detailing on the lighting equipment and the door shield.
-
Beautiful paint finish and like the clean and low style.
-
Remember following your body work on this and the finish and shape is something Ford could of and should have done. Beautiful paint finish and color accents the body lines. Like the wheels & tires along with the stance.
-
Great looking paint color and finish. The interior color complements the body color well. Nice clean looking engine and chassis.
