SteveG Posted October 4, 2009 Posted October 4, 2009 On display at the Toledo NNL and available now from Modelhaus is the 72 Ford Custom Sedan. I picked up the full kit so look for a review soon. Special thank to my friend Tom Kren for letting me borrow his camera and hosting the photos. -Steve

ScaleCentral Posted October 5, 2009 Posted October 5, 2009 Wow, more stuff to buy. What's with the $65 $91 prices? One a transkit the other a full kit? Nic
SteveG Posted October 5, 2009 Author Posted October 5, 2009 Wow, more stuff to buy. What's with the $65 $91 prices? One a transkit the other a full kit? Nic Exactly right, I stepped up and bought the full kit so I could review it. The other way you need the 70 Ford Galaxie or a similar kit for the tires, wheels & chassis.
spkgibson Posted October 7, 2009 Posted October 7, 2009 Why am I so seeing a build of Gator McKlusky's, (Burt Reynolds), ride from the movie "White Lightning" in my future? Best of all I've got the DVD for reference material! I wonder if the Modehaus vendor that usually makes the Omaha shows/swapmeets will be at the Mid-America Nats in Bellevue/Omaha this weekend & if he'll have that beauty. Something might be coming home with me......... Good looking kit!
SteveG Posted October 8, 2009 Author Posted October 8, 2009 Here's a closer look at the kit parts after some minimal clean up, I hope to start a build up real soon. Right now I'm planning on modeling it after one the cars used in the Movie "Magnum Force" starring Clint Eastwood. I can just about here him say " Go ahead ..... make my '72 Ford Custom 500" -Steve
BigBlockLyle Posted October 8, 2009 Posted October 8, 2009 I may have to get one of these babys. Isn't there a green '72 in the Dukes of Hazard episode "Repo Men?"
