Just finished this one up today.  My first Galaxie kit and it was great, very well engineered, my only nit is the fit of the front fenders (being a separate part).  The decals fell apart on me due to age, but otherwise a pleasure to build with great detail on the engine and chassis.  Comments welcome, thanks for looking.

Nice Bruce!

I have the Aerosedan & the Sedan Delivery kits that I bought years ago when they first came out.

They seem to be great kits, but I just haven't been able to muster the interest to build them.

Maybe yours will help motivate me.

Great job!

Looks really good. The only things I might have done differently is omitted the wheel trim rings and the beltline trim. That would have added to the base-model look

I really like your take on this kit. I think it's the first time I've seen it built without whitewalls and it suits the car very well. Beautiful model!

Very nice looking! I like the color.

That's a great kit...did you notice the firing order (in raised numbers) on the exhaust manifold? That's the way the 1:1 cars were.

BTW, as pictured, I believe that is a '47. In '48, there was a vertical bar in the center of the grille, and aftermarket folks were quick to offer a vertical bar for the '47s to make them look like the '48.

I had a 1:1 '47 with the aftermarket bar.
