Lovefordgalaxie Posted February 8, 2019 Posted February 8, 2019 My first completed car in 2019. AMT 1956 Ford Fairlane Victoria. Built box stock. All detail is paint, foil and decals. The only parts that didn't come in the box, are the tires, that are also AMT, but from the parts pack. I painted wide whitewalls on the side of the tires where the Firestone name is, and mounted them with the tampo printed whitewalls facing inside. Was going to remove the printed whitewalls, but they look kinda cool there. The colors, are Fiesta Red, and Raven Black, mixed in automotive synthetic enamel. Here are a few pictures, hope you guys like her:

Curt Posted February 8, 2019 Posted February 8, 2019 Yes, she’s a beauty, Tulio! Great fit on the opening doors.
Classicgas Posted February 8, 2019 Posted February 8, 2019 Nope. Can't say I like it at all. I would be lying. I LOVE it, you sir are the 56-57 Ford Master!
Geno Posted February 8, 2019 Posted February 8, 2019 Stunning build Tulio. The 56's are beautiful cars.
TarheelRick Posted February 9, 2019 Posted February 9, 2019 Excellent build of one of the more beautiful Tri-5's. Really like the color combination and your attention to cleanliness in building is over the top.
cobraman Posted February 9, 2019 Posted February 9, 2019 Another knockout from your bench ! Beautiful work !
1972coronet Posted February 9, 2019 Posted February 9, 2019 Outstanding fifty-six Vic ! I have one of these bad boys in my stash (the reissue from ~8 years ago) ; planning on doing a mild customising job on it . Did your felines approve ?
Lovefordgalaxie Posted February 9, 2019 Author Posted February 9, 2019 Thanks guys!!! Very appreciated!!
David G. Posted February 9, 2019 Posted February 9, 2019 What can I say Túlio? Spectacular work as always! Your paintwork and detail are a true pleasure to see. David G.
espo Posted February 9, 2019 Posted February 9, 2019 Another one of your outstanding Ford builds. These were popular color combinations at that time. This makes one wonder how buyers today would react to such colors on todays automobiles ?

I don't think even nice colors can save modern cars. All butt ugly.
