Lovefordgalaxie Posted September 28, 2016 Author Posted September 28, 2016 Thanks again guys!!! You all are very gentle with my gluebombs!! Another beauty Tulio! But, don't you ever get tired of building Fords? I love Mopars, but I build tons of GM & Ford vehicles too! If it was made prior to about 1972, they're all fantastic in my eyes. Steve First of all, I wish I could build like you do Steve. Big fan of your awesome work. On the Ford building part, well, for me, building a model kit is something that uses a lot of time and love, not to mention the cost of the products involved. If one lives outside the U.S., the cost of a kit is considerably higher. A simple AMT kit can hit the 150 Reais mark, and that is about 48 Dollars. I gave up on BMF as the cost X benefit proved it a unnecessary product. Tamiya paints, and the good old Testors little bottles are a must, so biting the bullet is inevitable. The automotive paints I use for the bodies is actually the cheaper part. With all that in mind, I build the cars I really love and wish to have in 1:1 form, and those are FoMoCo products, about 99% of the times. I also build GM cars once in a while. This year I built two Chevrolet pickup trucks. A '57 Cameo Carrier, that i think to be just stunning, and converted to 100% stock '55 Chevrolet Stepside pickup truck. Not to mention the countless 1:12 scale '57 Chevrolet Bel Air kits I have both built and unbuilt. Guess the only Mopar I like is the '58 Belvedere. It's not a question of taste or logic, it's a question of love. When I see a Ford Galaxie, a '57 Fairlane, or even a brand new Mustang, I get excited every time.

I was just pulling your leg a little because I know how much you love Fords. Steve
Bill J Posted September 28, 2016 Posted September 28, 2016 Very cool Ford! Excellent paint job makes it perfect

I was just pulling your leg a little because I know how much you love Fords. Steve LOL!!! Don't worry Steve I knew you were pulling my leg. I just wanted to show that there is a little reason on my Ford building, other than just loving the BLAH_BLAH_BLAH_BLAH things Today I was looking at my stash, and I found 128 Ford kits, 15 Chevy kits and a AMT '58 Belvedere... Now, just to prove how maniac I am. Among the Ford kits I have 16 AMT 1957 Ford Fairlane 500 Club Victorias, and 5 Revell 1957 Ford Custom Tudor kits. I believe I'm very found of 1957 Fords
