pharoah Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 today at Joe's garage we got a cherry AMT '49 Ford coupe. Just as clean as the day it was molded. Well almost.... This baby can be yours today for just 175 smackers! Look at that chassis! Just as clean as the top! Well ,almost.... And because I like your face,I'll throw in the bumper stickers for free. Waddya say? OK. This was built as a memory from my youth. there used to be cars like this at the used car lots. You might think $175 was cheap,but that was a months pay on 1965. the bumper stickers are hard to see ,but one is a 'Re-elect Ike and dick' and the other says something about Commies,that I won't go into here. Just a fun build. So,have we got a sale? Huh? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

espo Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 I enjoy your story line. I bought a '51 Ford in '62 for $150 but it looked a little better than this. A fresh Krylon Flat Black paint job and a non functioning hood release. Your build is a real flash back, thank you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foxer Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 That looks just right. I bought a '51 Plymouth in 1965 in about the same shape! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
