1960 ford xk falcon ute

[michelle]

I modified a amt coca cola 1960 ford Ranchero kit I had to curbside it cause I was not able to find a early 60's ford i6 engine as that was all that the early aussie falcons came with I reworked the dash into a right hand drive layout and shaved off the Ranchero logo and name from the body I painted the body rust-oleum 2x flat Grey primer and did a top coat of rust-oleum 2x gloss clear over it as it was the closest color to koala Grey the interior I painted with a Grey acrylic craft paint I hand made the northern territory license plate

G’day Michelle, nice XK Falcon ute there. I remember a lot of these on the road when l was a kid, very hard to find a good one now, all succumbed to rust l guess. As for a suitable straight 6, maybe the 6 cylinder in some Moebius F-100 kits would work?

Very nice xk ute, the colour was quite common with these early 60s Australian work vehicles but the white wall tyres were only seen on the upmarket Fords which were exclusively American full size luxury cars converted to RHD. Really well done Michelle. 

PS. I recommend you check out Texas 3D Customs for your Inline 6 needs.

Cheers, 

David. ??
