1957 Ford Custom "Spearmint"

[mrmike]

This is my '57 Ford Custom that I call "Spearmint". It is painted with Tamiya TS-20 Metallic Green and Tamiya TS-7 Racing White. The interior is painted with Humbrol Dragoon Green.

Sweet! Love the color combo!

[Chris White]

so nice

[Genegenie]

Nice model !!

....but the kit I bought, had a slight twist to the body and the hood wouldn't fit square,

otherwise a good release by Revell

[Harry P.]

Nice.

Simple, clean and basic. And a very typical looking (and attractive) '50s paint scheme. Good stuff!

[Guest]

Very nice!

[TooOld]

Beautiful !

I especially like the photos of the front and rear , great detailing !

[slusher]

Very sharp build Mike, colors work so well together. l enjoyed watching you build it...

Looks good, nice color choice. The engine looks sweet. Thanks for sharing.

I agree with everyone else. A Great looking Fairlane with beautiful color scheme. Green and white fit perfectly together, especially in body like this. Sharp details all around, too.

X2. Nice stance too. It appears to have a slight nose-down rake, which works perfectly with the overall look.

I must admit, I do like the colors on it.

Nice build Mike, I'll look forward to seeing it at MassCar in March.

Love your Spearmint MCMLVII Ford , Mike !

Its colour scheme is a true standout ; a really unique combo , and just right for a working man's vehicle

Very NICE Mike!!

[mrmike]

Thanks everyone!

Actually, that nose down rake comes via a jacked up rear and large diameter tires.

Way better than yet another '57 Chevy. Great model!

[Greg Cullinan]

Looks good and a great color choice. I'm looking forward to doing this kit,any hiccups for you?

[mrmike]

Thanks Greg! This model went together without any problems. The only thing I can recommend is to be very careful installing the hood onto the body. Carefully bend the hood slightly in the center and slip the mounting pins into place.

Great build Mike! I loved the story and the WIP. Oh, and '57 Ford's aren't too bad either

[Danno]

Nice.
