59 Ford Ranchero

[Dave Wood]

just off the bench today,its an All American Models Resin trans kit I was going to use the 60 ford as a donor but it would have taken way too much modifying to make it work so I used a 57 Ford, I changed the interior to accommodate Bucket seats from a T Bolt and a parts box Console with photo etch guages. I also ordered the replacement white wall tires for the revell 50 Olds but used them on this with parts box wheels.

I love Rancheros! This is the only 59 Ford I like. Is that Testors green?

That is a beauty Dave! I love the colors on it! I'm guessing that you used the AMT '57 Ford chassis under it? Very nice work!
