Great paint finish and the dark blue looks good. Chrome foil can take a while to get comfortable with.

Great looking paint finish and color. The wheels compliment the build style.

Like the roof paint design. Unfortunately, the paint issues may have to do with a mix of brands of paint or even Enamel paint and Lacquer paint interaction. Nice cleanly done engine compartment and the air ride trunk equipment.

Beautiful looking smooth paint finish and clean body trim. Like the Cutlass style trim.

Great looking paint color and stripes.

Great attention to stock detailing and finishes. The way you modified the original kit body and interior shows just how good these looked when new and not modified. Nice commercial type paint color and a finish better than GM would have produced at the time. This and your maroon delivery are both show worthy.

Beautiful paint finish and trim. Like how you detailed the engine compartment.

Great looking high metallic paint and smooth finish. Like the matching interior colors.

Beautiful custom body mods and paint. The rear roll pan and taillight changes especially. The chassis is a great swap idea and fits perfectly. Like the stance and the rolling stock.

Like how you're enhancing the stock body type chrome trim.

Long ago while we were moving and when the movers pick up the couch there were a bunch of pills that were for our dog. He would tuck the pill under his tung and spit it out under the couch when we weren't looking.

Another Kansas bonus, no front license plate required. With the design of most modern vehicle a front plate just looks out of place and is a draw back to the appearance.

Exceptional finishes and realism.

Great looking patina finish and the Mexican blanket interior looks just right. You mentioned the engine installation issues. I did much the same thing on the '59 C-10 kit and found, just as you did, that the engine has to go in after the body and chassis are joined.

Beautiful paint and body trim finishes. The engine detailing is realistic looking. Great wheels and tires.

Great looking commercial style build. The paint combination and finish look nice and smooth. Like the utility bed and the pipe rack.

Beautiful paint color and finish. These were one of Fords better looking body styles. Like the stance and the wheels & tires used.

Great looking Road Runner with a smooth paint finish. Clean body trim and correct blackout hood. Like the engine detailing.

Hitting any object, especially any type of critter, can be a very startling experience at speed. Long ago I was driving north on a high desert hiway from southern California headed to Reno Nv. when a low flying and very large Crow decided to fly in front of me at front bumper level. I felt a slight impact at almost the same moment that the Crow flew into sight. Looking in the rear-view mirror there was a cloud of black feathers following me down the hiway for what seemed like a long time. No vehicle damage, but a few feathers were in behind the grill, and I found myself much more alert driving.

I'll use Future on the kit's windows and bumpers and grill sometimes. I'll attach them to an alligator clip on the end of a stick and then dip them into a small container of Future. Allow the excess to drain back into the container, then touch the lowest point of the object to a paper towel that will draw off any Future that would form a drip or puddle along the bottom edge. Then mount the stick to a holder until the part has dried enough to handle. Not had very good luck using Future as a clear coat on the painted surface as a clear coat.

Maybe consider using the Promo body to make a mold of it while it is still in the correct shape.

I saw on the news today that Florida has started using Mustangs again in their iconic color scheme again for high-speed pursuit on curtain hiways in Florida. They even showed a picture of one with all the markings, lights and push bars. They are claiming a 155-mph top speed.

Well-earned streetcar finish. One of my favorite kits as well. like the clean engine and chassis.

Great looking paint colors and finish. I would leave the carbs in the breeze myself, but maybe one of MoPars factory hood scoops? Like the engine detailing.

I agree with you on the paint color. The paint finish looks great with the black interior. Like the engine paint detailing with the stock look without going overboard.
