AMT 50 Ford convertible

I used some of the custom parts . They were molded on . I used Model Builders Warehouse wire wheels . Lime Ice paint with Duplicolor clear . I opened the rear wheel wells . Parts box bucket seats and center console . BMF side trim and Moloto pen on windshield frame . Looks ok I think for a kit that has been around as long as it has .

Great to see a modern build with all the period custom parts. Paint colour is excellent, it's come together very nicely.

Fond memories of building this one with my brothers in our teenage years.  I loved the front but was never fond of the back so we used putty to make a flatter version of those pods.  Your colour combo works perfectly with the wheels and tyres - this is very much a 62/63 type of build.  I might have to build one myself!  Nice work.

I'm pretty sure those seats are from the Revell Anglia, for what it's worth.

Cheers

The Green Mamba is pretty cool !  Great color choice and nice wire wheels .

Great job blending the custom body parts to the body smoothly. The paint color looks like some of the Metal Flake paint jobs of old. The roof you used always was a good custom show car style. Like so many others I also have built several of these shoe box Fords and they're a very rewarding build no matter what style you build.

Thank you very much fellows. I remember a lifetime ago building this kit with a buddy as we were camping in a tent in his back yard.

Very nicely done. Great job on blending in the custom parts. It's great to see the odd custom version getting built using the crazy looking parts they supply. The paint choice looks really good on this build. Nice one.

I could see that at Carl Caspers  custom car show. I miss that one

We still have the street rod show in Louisville that's always a good time

Great work

Thanks guys.

Excellent work! All the custom bits are well fitted. Great looking interior.

But that roof would be a killer at freeway speeds, talk about buffeting ?

It would have to have some strong anchor points.
