damodelguy phx az Posted January 28 Posted January 28 49 ford shoebox falcon is my latest build of my creation. this shoebox is all 66 nova under the body. built 1/27/25 thanx for lookin. 8 1
Zippi Posted January 28 Posted January 28 Man oh man Glen...what a kewl looking Shoebox Falcon. Looks like Pro Street to me. Nicely done.
Phildaupho Posted January 28 Posted January 28 Being a Falcon guy I just had to see what a 49 Shoebox Falcon would look like. You really nailed it. I like it a lot.
TarheelRick Posted January 28 Posted January 28 Sweet looking Shoebox, really like the way you worked the Nova roof onto the Ford body. Smooth, blue paint one of my favorite shades of blue.
Sledsel Posted January 28 Posted January 28 Good looking build, very different and thinking outside the box but the roof just does not work for me personally. In my eye the roof too square looking for the rounded body. Not knocking your build or imagination, just what I see.
espo Posted January 28 Posted January 28 Great looking paint work. The Chevy II roof really changes the look of the whole body.
damodelguy phx az Posted January 28 Author Posted January 28 thanx guys, andy, if the rear quarters were rounded off with out a ridge to the taillight, i probably would not have seen this possible. but when i look at the pick from high on front corner, i see the roof line edge pickup the quarter ridge. we all see what we see and work toward. sometimes we drift one way or other at the y in the adventure. wrong road and its back in the box for a later look if were lucky. i had a visual of this and grab the saw. had a 49 on bench for a ute project, and nova body still from using chassis on another project, clicked, went for it and seen some of a mid 60s falcon right a way. but i always build different. not as detailed as some master modelers, its a visual for me. i make my resins for my collection. thanx for note. glen
karbuildr Posted January 28 Posted January 28 Very well done build excellent use of the Nova parts and engine. Beautiful paint work.
rrb124@sbcglobal.net Posted January 29 Posted January 29 Beautiful engine and bay. The twin carbs really are eye catching.
