Moebius '65 Mercury Comet Cyclone news

[Dave Metzner]

We have received yet another set of 3D files of the 65 Comet and pointed out a few corrections that still need to be made - I anticipate that this kit may be ready to go to tooling in the next two- three weeks.

If that were to be the case - I might have first test shots in my hands around mid - November - if everything went without any kind of hiccup and 1st test shots don't need any revisions (that almost never happens) we could have kits before the end of the year - although, I'd honestly expect this to slide into first quarter of 2015..

[Matt LeBlanc]

Thanks for the updates!!!!!

Good, I'm looking forward to this more than the Plymouth. Love the Moebius kits I already own. So I know I'll like this one too.

Thanks for the update. Looking forward to this one - a "must have" for me. Worth waiting for to get it right.

[unclescott58]

I forgot to ask. What will the build options be for this kit? Will I be able to build a show room stock 1965 Cyclone from this kit? From what info I've seen in the past, I'm guessing this be the case. But, Dave can you confirm this?

Looking forward to it. I for one do not mind a kit being later so that it is correct.

1st Cyclone kit is a 289 4 barrel 4 speed - flat hood street car.

I will be grabbing a couple of the stock ones. Thanks for keeping us posted on all of the new releases. I can't wait to see which drag versions you do. Thanks for keeping up posted and building up the anticipation for these.

[unclescott58]

Dave, any word on what's the latest on the '65 Comet? (Also the Jonny Quest Dragonfly?)

Scott

[Jon Haigwood]

Looking forward on building a stock one to duplicate the 1:1 I owned back in the day

[Len Woodruff]

I would like and update too.

Dragonfly is on the boat - 65 Comet is on slow track for the moment waiting for 54 Hudson, 69 & 71 Ford pickups, to get on store shelves.. Hope to start tooling before too long -I'd like to think we'll have Comet on shelves before end of the year..

I think he means next year, since the Hudson isnt due this year.

Better hurry

[Dave Metzner]

DOH! I'm gettin old and senile! I lose track of the callendar some times! Comet - hoped for release before end of 2015!

[Craig Irwin]

I'm sure that a drag version will soon follow, that's the one I'm waiting for.

I hope it represents an actual car raced in 65.

[rickcaps55]

Bring it on !!! Been looking for this one for a long time..! Would like to see the 200 in line 6 as an option to.!

[ChrisBcritter]

Looking forward to this one - maybe I should go ahead and start cutting the hood out of my '64 Comet now?

[Dave Metzner]

Sorry no 6 cylinder -Cyclones were V-8 cars I'm not sure that you could get a six in a 2 door HT Comet - I'll need to check that out...our car is a 289 4bbl 4 gear car..

[IMPALASS89]

Dave how soon are you getting this to us ?

[Art Anderson]

Dave how soon are you getting this to us ?

I think David would answer "When it's ready". Nuff said? (I personallly think it's going to be sooner than later--after all, the kit was first announced not all that long ago.

This one I'm really looking forward to.
