Chassis upgrade for AMT 62 Comet

[thatz4u]

any ideas???

The Revell '64 Thunderbolt might be a good place to start.

Or you could check out the Moebius '65 Comet or one of the Trumpeter '64 Falcons.

It might take more work, but since the early Mustang was based on the Ford Falcon,  you may be able to use one of those as a last resort.

I used a Thunderbolt chassis under my '61. Should fit the '62 just as easily. It was actually less work to fit the Comet than it was to fit a '63 Fairlane. You have to fudge the rearend just a touch to get the rear wheels centered properly. Other than that, it's practically a drop in.

One have to remember that the 62-65 Fairlane shares chassis with only the 62-63 Mercury Meteor, the smaller Comet was Falcon based.
The 1966-67 Fairlane and Comet was Falcon based as well as the Mustang and Cougar, so there might be a place to look.
