skymnky721 Posted March 19, 2014 Posted March 19, 2014 Howdy all,,hope your getting some warmer weather wherever your at! I was going thru some inventory in storage here,,and ran across this OOB bx AMT 58' Edsel pacer,,its about 10 yrs old or older,,not sure,,Ive had it a awhile. But a great build as far as the kit going together well,,no probs. Gobs of BMF on this one,,whew!,,took awhile to do. But I like the kit overall,,Cheers!
impcon Posted March 19, 2014 Posted March 19, 2014 That's a very pretty build! I don't recall whether I have the Edsel in my stash or not but I wonder about using some of the old AMT '57 Ford parts on it as far as suspension goes? I also wonder about using the Fairlane as a sort of guide for opening the doors on the Edsel? I am not in the least critiquing your build, but I think that were I ever to build the Edsel, I'd forgo the hood ornament as it looks as if it's 'way out of scale. Having said that, I like your choice of colours and the work that you put into building this car is evident based on the quality of the build. That Edsel would be pretty in a convertible body style, wouldn't it? I think that it Popular mechanics or Mechani'cs Illustrated that had a very striking turquoise and white convertible on the cover back then.. WOW!!!
Lovefordgalaxie Posted March 20, 2014 Posted March 20, 2014 Great looking model!! Always loved Edsels.
Kris Morgan Posted March 20, 2014 Posted March 20, 2014 Nice clean build. That color looks great on there.
realgone58 Posted March 21, 2014 Posted March 21, 2014 I'm diggin' it!! Great to see one of these in something other than red, white, or black.
charlie8575 Posted March 22, 2014 Posted March 22, 2014 The blue and gray are a nice combination. Nicely done. Charlie Larkin
