The most recent builds of that kit I did were in 1994, when I built the two box art models for AMT.

This is one of the boxes they came in...

And the leftover goodies....

More box art...

Here's a shot of my diner diorama with a 65 Galaxie convertible in the parking lot. The model is exactly as I built it in 1965. I have a Galaxie from every year from 1959 through 1969 that I built back in those years.

I've never seen a Chopped Galaxie b-4 and probely will never see another.

Great build Steve

Looks like a Cool Sleeper FordRodnKustom..

Looks like a Cop car to me.

Cool build.

I love the 65 and have one in the work shop getting redone.

I molded the 66 teardrop hood on to the 65.

[RodneyBad]

Very Classie build Steve

I like it.. a lot..

I'm not even a fan of the '65 Ford, but I love this take on it! Nice touch with the nod to the '57 Ford. Well done!

[dragon3323]

Steve how did you do the chrome on the trim

[stevehansen]

1/2 round styrene and liquid cement before paint & bare metal

[2000-cvpi]

Fordrodkustom, that is one sweet looking Ford. I would love to have the real thing. P

[dragon3323]

here mine so far

[Dave Darby]

There are some sweet Galaxies here! I especially love that 427, Ron. Having built the box art cats (their way), I think when I ever get around to building mine, I will drill out the headlights so the lenses can fit flush. Great work, guys!

[Ron Hamilton]

Here is mine, converted from the AMT Hardtop, using a Modelhaus Boot.

I made an operating reclining passenger seat, swing away steering wheel w/column shift and floor shift blockoff plate, and yes it has a 390 V8 and C-6 from the AMT '66 Fairlane Kit.

I added the trunk trim to the deck lid. My Grandmother's '65 Galaxie had it.

This is one of my favorite builds. I also have a '66 Galaxie 500 7Liter Convertible, and a '66 Mercury S55 Convertible to go with it.

[stevehansen]

Excellent job Ron, great conversion

[Fast Floyd 2]

Nice work on all of them
