I like the way it's turning out too ! Very nice . Scale Dreams has great service , you should have the BMF this weekend !

Around that time automobiles were still a luxury item and not a necessity . Not a lot of people could afford them . In 1936 we were still recovering from the depression .

Could get VERY interesting ! Where did you get the rear tires ?

Thank you Cesar . It's being reissued . I think the release date is March 2013 .

Looks perfect , as in period correct ! Great build !

The door handle might be useable . Very realistic looking !

I also use MEK . I bought a quart at Ace Hardware for about 10 bucks more than a year ago . Bill , does DCM work better or about the same ? I've never tried Tenax .

It looks really good in styrene so it should look fantastic when it's painted ! Good tip about the headlights , best one I've seen yet .

That's pretty cool . I think I saw an ice cream truck going the other way !

Thanks Roger ! It's an easy chop . PM me if you have any questions .

Thank you Albie , Andy , and Adam . I'm glad you like it !

Wooooooooooooooooooooow !

Thanks again ! This is my very first curbside build . Felt kinda weird not detailing the engine and chassis .

Very nice ! I like it alot , the stripe too !

That is a beautiful Cougar ! Love the color . I also like the California Special , my dad almost bought one back when they were new ! And a nice job converting the Lincoln back to stock !

They are excellent kits and the bodies don't need any thinning at all , they look almost like a polystyrene body ! They are also more flexible than most resin bodies which means no broken parts . I bought their '72 Ranchero and the only part that need some work to fit properly was the front grille / bumper but it looked great when I was done . Also the windshield / windows are typical of vacuum formed windows and need some careful trimming to fit in the body . I'd say go ahead and buy one , they are worth the extra money .

That's awesome ! I enjoyed watching this build and it turned out beautiful ! And your photography ain't bad either !

Thank you guys ! I'm glad you like it .

Fantastic ! The level of detailing is amazing .

Looking really good James ! The PE scripts are just fine . . . I'm having to do the same thing on a current build .

I pulled this from my stash a month or so ago and started cutting it up . I chopped the roof , slid it forward 1/4 inch , and changed the angle of the tailgate . Then I cut the grooves in the roof to mimic the original Nomads . Next I tucked that big ol' bumper in close to the body , opened the grille , and added headlights from the Revell 2009 Challenger . Side mirrors were taken from the Revell '86 Monte Carlo . After all that was done I lost interest and sat it aside for a few weeks . I was ready to pack it up when I decided to finish it and get it over with , so I glued the hood shut and made it a curbside ! The paint is Duplicolor Chili Pepper Red over base coats of flat black and bright silver , then cleared with Rustoleum Automotive Enamel . The wheels and tires are Pegasus . I can only post photos in a " reply " so they will be posted next . Thanks and I hope you like it !

Does she have a sister ?

Cool looking little Mustang ! I'd drive it every day no problem . Great job !
