Sixx Posted March 10, 2012 Posted March 10, 2012 I just finished this original AMT 63 Galaxie 500. It needed some work like I rebuilt the drivers side a pillar & vent window frame, added photo-etch window cranks, scratched a shifter, flocked the carpet areas,gauge decals, stripped the chrome...alclad now, foiled,antenna added, etc...first pics are before any real work, just showing the condition it was in
jayhkr Posted March 10, 2012 Posted March 10, 2012 Wow, awesome turn around! Hey quick question for you, how do you get such good shots of the interior up close like that? I always have focusing issues. Well done though!!
cobraman Posted March 10, 2012 Posted March 10, 2012 Nice job ! What a transformation. I like your clean building style and enjoy seeing your work here and also on ebay.
mikemodeler Posted March 10, 2012 Posted March 10, 2012 WOW! That shore is purty! Nice save and beautiful job.
Eshaver Posted March 10, 2012 Posted March 10, 2012 Wow , you took that much time on an old Promo too. That sir impresses me .....................................A LOT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Ed Shaver
John Teresi Posted March 10, 2012 Posted March 10, 2012 Derrick.......that is such a beautiful build .........what a difference .......STUNNING!!!!!!
Sixties Sam Posted March 10, 2012 Posted March 10, 2012 Nice, nice, nice! I always liked the 60's Galaxies, and your model is one of the best I've ever seen! Very good work! Looks great in black and red! Sam
Guest Johnny Posted March 10, 2012 Posted March 10, 2012 That is aweet! Love the square roof Fords! Hope to someday find a 1962!
Scuderia Posted March 10, 2012 Posted March 10, 2012 Yeah, I gotta agree with the others, that's gorgeous. Good job!
1zebra3 Posted March 10, 2012 Posted March 10, 2012 I also agree with others this is one nice looking 63 promo. GREAT JOB
jbwelda Posted March 10, 2012 Posted March 10, 2012 very slick and killer looking! i love that chassis too...note they misspelled "safety" on the upper frame area.
realgone58 Posted March 10, 2012 Posted March 10, 2012 Darrick, awesome job! It's ironic that you posted this, because currently I am using the promo formal roofline body (like yours) with the current '63 Galaxie kit. I salvaged the Ming Green, did the roof in white, removed the console, filled in the tunnel, used a parts bin bench, and so far still under construction. I'll post it here when done. Nice job on yours..........my buddy recently sold one (1 to 1) that was identical!
ChevyCoupe41 Posted March 10, 2012 Posted March 10, 2012 Wow! That Ford look so sweet! Interior and the paint looks very nice. Good job!
crazyjim Posted March 10, 2012 Posted March 10, 2012 There's a shot - and a save! Nice going, Derrick. The black is so SHINY :)
