This looks so nice. I have such a long way to go.

Thanks Kevin!

I feel the same way about every build when I first get started on it.

This one especially!

Took me twice as long as my average build! :P

Again, thank you all so very much!!

WOW! Anoter beauty from your bench, Steve! It's always great to see these old annuals being built, and you're probably the best guy to build them. Great job on paint job and foiling. Interior looks very realistic too. Excellent work.

Seeing your builds makes me want to start my AMT '59 Edsel or '61 Chevy Pickup. One day they'll get on my bench.B)

Go for it Niko!

What are you waiting for?

I derive great satisfaction from building these old annuals.

As a matter of fact, every time I think about starting a modern kit I get side tracked into another annual.

I figure the new kits will be around forever in one form or another.

These old annuals are slowly becoming extinct! :(

Thank you for the kind words!

Well, I have most of the parts needed for that Edsel. I'm going to use AMT '58 Edsel as a donor kit where I'm taking chassis and engine. Only thing that kind of slows me down is the interior. It might be that '59 Interior does not fit with '58 chassis, so it might be that interior will need to be pretty much scratchbuilt. 

Pickup is waiting for a chassis and engine donor, since it will be "full detail" build, too.B)

And it's true that these annuals are getting harder to find. That's why I've been trying to buy them as well whenever I see one for sale with reasonable price. I really like building them compared to new kits.
