Moebius 1970 Ford 4x4 is done

[cobraman]

Not a bad kit at all . Fit together well for the most part . My only real picks are what I said in the workbench section . Suspension too low and tires too small . Those are just my opinion . I got some aftermarket tires which I think look much better and I raised the suspension a few scale inches . Had some problem with fitting the windshield but that may have been me . Painted it Tamiya metallic green . Interior is green and white . Comments always welcome pro or con .

Looks perfect to me. I like the ride height and the tires are much more fitting for such a truck. Great paint job and the white painted wheels look right.

Looks great!! Those windshields can be a pain. Nice work!!

[cobraman]

Thank you fellows.

Beautifully done, sir! The stance looks just right. Color is great!

 I had a bit of a time with the windshield in the '69 Moebius Ford pickup, so I guess all of these in this series will be that way.

[cobraman]

Thanks . I think your right about the windshields in these kits .

 Moebius seems to have a lot trouble with window fit...these pickups and the 61 Pontiacs especially. 

 Their recent  kits  seem to be only about 98% finished when they start production, I hope that changes with the new owners.

I like it ..!  Ill have to see about maybe getting me one my late grandfather owned a couple of these trucks one a rare crew cab...he did construction work.   Nice build..!

[cobraman]

Thank you fellows !  Except for the windshield this kit fits together very well.

That is a great looking truck Ray. Love the color and stance too. Sharp!

[slusher]

Sharp and sweet Ford pickup Ray!

Looking good Ray.  Is the windshield another of outside fitting ones?  I hate that.

[cobraman]

Thank you guys. No Jim the window mounts in through the interior. I kind of think the roof of the cab has a bow in it that hinders the window fit. Not sure. But other than that the kit goes together about as good any kit i built in my 50 plus years of building.

Nice job, love the color.

I am working on this truck right now. I have bought all of these so far, and only a 69 done right now. I would like to see the chassis if you have any pictures of it. I bought some wheels and tires from Fireball model works, and looking at how to lift this up.

[cobraman]

Can’t get photos to load . Will try later

Thanks for that pic. One more thing, what did you use for the front springs?

[cobraman]

I had some springs in my parts box and don't know where they came from. You can pretty much use any leaf springs and make them work.

Good looking build.

Looks good. Takes me back to the early 80's 

[ChrisR]
