Not my cup of tea but have you seen the recent Iron Resurrection episode for the '64 Falcon?

May be an image of 2 people and car

I saw that episode. I like the color and the tucked bumpers but I don't care for the wheels and the finish on the hood scoop and grill.

I don't care for the grill and scoop either. Grill looks like it came off a Valiant , and the scoop looks Mopar as well. Would look better body color though. I didn't look any further than the picture that was posted,  but if it has a Hemi in it, then I understand the grill and scoop. ?

How did I miss this thread before? Yes, I have a few, especially if we're counting Rancheros.

1. Built from a glue bomb; the roof had so much paint on it that it melted and was toast, so I grafted a roof on from another source:

966 Falcon  LF

967 Falcon LR

It has a more modern chassis and drivetrain:

836 Falcon engine bay

2. 1/32 scale stock Ranchero:

32nd Ranchero LF 2

3. 1/32 scale Ranchero slot car:

Ranchero RF 2.jpg

4. A replica of the Shelby '63 sedan delivery parts getter/test mule:

Shelby Falcon Delivery LF

And finally, my 1/1:

LEFT FRONT

Has a Coyote in it with a super charger IIRC.

Really like all of them, especially the last one...because you can drive it.

My '61 built from a bad resin body. I used a Monogram '66 Mustang chassis/drivetrain and underhood core.

What decals did you use for the numbers? The font looks great.

I've always wanted to build a falcon specific a 66 to be a replica of my dads first car he still has and drives. But I either can never find one or they are WAY to expensive for me. The worst part is I just watched a guy part out one out on ebay and it was gone before I could make a deal with him.

I do have this kit and never have got around to build it. But I've never liked the modified stocker part and it's a shame that amt butchered this kit to make this.
