Ford guy Posted January 5, 2013 Posted January 5, 2013 Those are some very good looking builds Ron. Clean, detailed and shiney. Awesome! Roy the Ford guy
mikemodeler Posted January 5, 2013 Posted January 5, 2013 Very nice, great colors and kits. Looks like you "saved" a few also!
Ron35369 Posted January 5, 2013 Author Posted January 5, 2013 Thanks for the nice comments guys! Yes, I'm all about saving an old kit whenever possible. I think I actually get more satisfaction from doing rebuilds than building a freshly opened kit. Especially an old out of production model. Alan, the color on the Ranchero is House Of Kolor Kandy Organic Green over a black base. I use a lot of HOK paints on my builds, along with Kustom Shop & factory colors from Paintscratch.com. My clear coat is always HOK UC-35 Kosmic Color Urethane. I'm glad you enjoyed my past builds. I have more photos of these builds as well as older models that I can post if anyone is interested. Just let me know.
Alan Posted January 5, 2013 Posted January 5, 2013 (edited) Thanks for the paint info Ron. How about more of the green Ranchero and your teal 63 Biscayne ? Edited January 5, 2013 by Alan

Sixties Sam Posted January 6, 2013 Posted January 6, 2013 (edited) I love the Nomad and the 62 Pontiac, but they're all beauties! Very good work on all of them! Sam Edited January 6, 2013 by Sixties Sam
Ron35369 Posted January 6, 2013 Author Posted January 6, 2013 Thanks again for ALL the great comments. I will start posting more photos of these builds starting with the Ranchero as per Alan's request. I will also post what I'm working on right now in the what's on your bench section.
