realgone58 Posted November 19, 2014 Posted November 19, 2014 This is a promo I rescued. The factory Ming Green metallic actually polished up very nicely, so I left well enough alone and detailed the interior, sprayed the roof in white, blackwashed where appropriate and added bare metal foil. I like it because of the 2 door post body style in 500 trim.
slusher Posted November 19, 2014 Posted November 19, 2014 Beautiful classic. So great seeing these promos saved
unclescott58 Posted November 19, 2014 Posted November 19, 2014 As others have said, nice save. It looks really good. Scott
Chuck Most Posted November 19, 2014 Posted November 19, 2014 Nice! I restored a '62 kit a few years back- I'd love to dig up another one.
Harry P. Posted November 20, 2014 Posted November 20, 2014 Is the window trim and the side spears the foil you added? If so, you did a super clean job. Nice model, that's a real beauty!
Grumpa Posted November 20, 2014 Posted November 20, 2014 Beautiful foil work Alan! I've got a couple of promo's that I want to resurrect one of these days. Your's came out great!
StevenGuthmiller Posted November 20, 2014 Posted November 20, 2014 Very nice Alan! I especially like the color. Must have been a pretty popular color on the Fords back then. I've seen it a lot. I planned on that color for a future '62 Mercury Monterey convertible build. Steve
disabled modeler Posted November 20, 2014 Posted November 20, 2014 Beautiful work Alan....! I have a 63 kit to restore once the parts are found for it....Mines a kit but love promos and restoring them its like saving a piece of history for me...
Sixties Sam Posted November 20, 2014 Posted November 20, 2014 Great work! I like the color. Great foil work! Sam
