RSchnell Posted August 26, 2023 Posted August 26, 2023 Nice build! Brings back pleasant memories for me: A now departed customer/friend of mine and collector of 50s Fords had a 55-57 T-bird collection that had every color for every year, even the rare F code '57 Birds- he had 2. At any rate he wanted to exhibit a few at a Ford show here in central Florida- guess which one I drove? Yep! His Sage Green '56.
XYHARRY Posted August 26, 2023 Posted August 26, 2023 Nice colour on this Andy. Your details make this special. Well done. Cheers, David. ??

Zippi Posted August 29, 2023 Posted August 29, 2023 I love this 56 Baby Bird in the Sage green. Great detail work in the business end. Great looking build.
