Falcon Ranchero Posted February 24 Posted February 24 20 bucks got me this complete snap tite Lincoln kit from 1965. The original price sticker on the box was $1.65 from Simpsons-Sears. This kit was real nice as it is officially the oldest kit (in terms of age) that I have built. Originally molded in black, I thought the two-tone blue treatment would look pretty snazzy on a car like this so that is the paint job this car wears now. Also changed the tires as it came with little thin stripe whites which looked kinda odd for a car like this so I robbed the set off my '53 Ford Truck and the fit pretty well on these rims. 21

Bainford Posted February 26 Posted February 26 Good looking Lincoln, Nathan. The two-tone blue sets it off perfectly. 1
