Thanks for the info Mike (posted below).  Safety Fuel Cells were permitted in '68.  My Falcon is as it appeared in '67 at Mid-Ohio when stock tanks were still required.

Thanks Trevor, glad you enjoy the builds.

Looks like you're cleared for take off to me JC. Roll with it man.

[Slotto]

Love that little bird. Very nice!

[mecklm]

You have a great knack for absolutely nailing the ride height and overall stance of your projects. Even in mock up form your builds exude realism. Can't wait to see this one in paint! 

[afx]

Thanks Steve.

Now comes the nerve racking part for me Joe - paint and BMF!  I so rarely use BMF (not a big chrome guy) that I am still working off the first sheet I ever bought. 

Thanks Mike.  Stance and wheel/tire combination are requirements 1 and 1A for me so I work hard to get those right.

[Dogfish_7]

Just perfect.

[Draggon]

Really sweet, the choice on rims was the right one!

Thanks Steve.

Looking forward to seeing this one finished.

Worst thing that can happen is the paint gets messed up and the body takes a purple bath.

I don't sweat painting or BMF anymore. I can always fix what doesn't come out to my liking. It is only semi-permanent.

Wow! Just...WOW!!

I hear you JC. I always get nervous when I use that stuff too.

[Swifster]

I love the build and the attention to detail...

 

[Dann Tier]

This has the perfect look!, as usual -outstanding attention to detail! this engine looks "all business". like my dad told me, "if it don't go -chrome it!" -Love the look of this engine!

I appreciate the comments and the interest gentlemen. I hope to start painting soon.

Woooo Hoooooo!!!! PARTY!!!!

You've got this one looking great JC !!!!!

[afx]

Thanks Randy.  

Misted on the Champagne Gold and flat-out hated it.  The metal flake was way to big.  I'm in the process of over-spraying the solid color Sand Beige.  May not be 100% accurate but it looks much better - stay tuned.

[mustang1989]

Man I hate it when that happens JC. Looking very much  forward to the recovery. Hang in there JC as this one'll be another good one in the books when its finished.

[Lowlife ! !]

Wow I missed this one JC, incredible work so far !

[Dann Tier]

This is coming along great!! love your work......keep it up!!

Just happened to see one at the Road America Historic races this past weekend.  Was in un-restored/barn-find condition but they did have it on the track for some laps.

[afx]

Would love to see any pictures you care to share David.
