'59 Ford Retractable Hardtop

Recommended Posts

Hello Guys!

Just completed Revells 59 Ford Fairlane Skyliner with a working retractable hardtop. It's a very old kit

with a multi-piece body but still very nice and I had a lot of fun putting it together.

Thanx for checking it out!

Wow, that paint really stands out on what is an absolutely stunning build! I picked up one of those kits at a show last year, and I do plan on building it. You definitely have a contest winner there (probably a "Best In Show" candidate)!

Anders, this is just perfect - the paint finish, the detailing and your presentation: show-room quality!

I have bult this one also back in the 80's (kit had no stock hubcaps) - not easy but the roof mechanism though crude as it is, does work indeed (albeit the roof shows a kink when closed)
