rmvw guy Posted June 26, 2014 Posted June 26, 2014 I built ths one while on vacation a week in Florida. Out of box stock. I used American Tradition Ultra Enamel Willow Satin. The old AMT Trophy series kits are still a lot of fun.
cobraman Posted June 26, 2014 Posted June 26, 2014 Ron, Ron , Ron........ I enjoy building as much as the next guy but, building on vacation ??? You must really like building or you took vacation in a crummy place. : )
rmvw guy Posted June 26, 2014 Author Posted June 26, 2014 Thanks guys. Ray, this is the way I relax, my wife likes to read and I build models. She finished three novels. It was just a simple kit and probably all I could build in a week. Here's a view from our window.
58 Impala Posted June 26, 2014 Posted June 26, 2014 Cool build, I have a couple of 36 kits that I'll get around to building. Maybe I should take a vacation to Florida and build one, wait... I live in Florida and I still can't build that fast.
John Goschke Posted June 26, 2014 Posted June 26, 2014 Looks great! That color is perfect. Nice job attaching the roof!
Sixgunner68 Posted June 27, 2014 Posted June 27, 2014 Man, with the right background it would look like the real deal!!!
1 bad55 stan Posted June 27, 2014 Posted June 27, 2014 sweet build Ron,i like the weathering under neath,looks great..
Lovefordgalaxie Posted June 27, 2014 Posted June 27, 2014 I loved it!! Just have one thing I would change: The front right hubcap (the one with the Ford oval) is the one that is supposed to go on the spare. On the wheels, the hubcaps have the V8 emblem. Easy fix, and very sweet build.
Duntov Posted June 28, 2014 Posted June 28, 2014 This is one nice piece of work --- Proof positive that with some patience and attention to detail the AMT Trophy kits weren't all that bad --- and still are pretty good even today!!!
