RickRollerLT1 Posted December 18, 2011 Posted December 18, 2011 ..whille rummageing through the garage. It's in mint condition though all the parts are open. what's it worth? If my Dad knows if it gets good money, i'll consider selling it. If not, i'll build it and make him proud! well?
bigphoto Posted December 18, 2011 Posted December 18, 2011 Build it and make him proud!! Just remember to take your time as it is very fiddly at best. However a very nice model can be built from it. It is like all other IMC kits they were very over engineered.
henry57 Posted December 18, 2011 Posted December 18, 2011 There not worth a whole lot, Do you know what year it's form?
disabled modeler Posted December 18, 2011 Posted December 18, 2011 Id build it for him... I have my dads old collection and wouldn't part with them for anything even though they need parts so I can restore them. someday Ill get them all restored to their proper condition.
RickRollerLT1 Posted December 19, 2011 Author Posted December 19, 2011 Decided, i'll build it for him then! The issue is from 1989 IIRC.
440 Dakota Posted December 19, 2011 Posted December 19, 2011 great idea thats what I'd do also,I just bought one for myself $12 shipped still sealed,Testors version
Greg Myers Posted December 19, 2011 Posted December 19, 2011 Build it. Dads appreciate things like that. I know my dad did.
Qwit Pushin Posted December 20, 2011 Posted December 20, 2011 I've got both, the coupe and convertible kits - both opened, the convertible started, but not finished. Perhaps I'll get around to them one of these days.
Eshaver Posted December 20, 2011 Posted December 20, 2011 I built the coupe back in 1966 when this kit was an I M C kit . The objections I had with the kit were a smallish V-8 engine and some of the fiddly parts that had some objectionable gaps in them . It looked so so when I completed it and comparing this to one of I M C's GT-Ford kits , hey you could put this one together ! Testors when they aquired the I M C tools never to my knowlege did the J- Car or the origional G T Ford . I think they did the later GT-40 Ford . The 46-48 Ford kits went on to be come part of the Linburg tool collection . Hey, build it for Nostalga sake ! Ed Shaver
RickRollerLT1 Posted December 20, 2011 Author Posted December 20, 2011 Very well then. I'll customize that lil SOB still she straight and low, w/a twin turbo SOHC 427!!! **** Yeah!
