37 ford pickup painted and cleared with testors enamel. Has a flat head with plug wires, fuel lines, and radiator hoses.[img src="i1297.photobucket.com/albums/ag38/gardnerpag44/SDC13929_zps6bw7z4n4.jpg" alt="" style="max-width:100%;" src="http://i1371.photobucket.com/albums/ag285/john_mccann
My 76 Pinto pavement modified built right from the box except I didn't use the kit Chevy engine instead used a 427 from the AC Cobra kit and
wired the motor
Used pavement tires instead of the kit dirt tires

And some more
Some of you may have seen this one last month. This one ended up being a curbside kit because of fit issues with the engine I was going to use.
Here's my Ford. Its a european mk2 escort done as a kids first on the road project.
There are older but better pics in this thread jerryscherrys.freeforums.net/thread/2934/fors-european-70s-muscle
Here is my entry its a 36 ford Coupe, its painted pearl blue over silver, its been lowered and kitbash wheels fitted.
Islandrods
This was originally started by an old friend, who did the roof chop about 20+ years ago, when he passed away, all i wanted was some of his stuff that he had started, so i could finish them for him.
It had a custom front, which i could not find any lights to fit, so i chopped the front off and added a 37 front to it.
Smoothed all the under floor and chassis, and plumbed up a kick ass engine with fabricated induction.
Paint is all Automotive Acrylic PINK.
Only Ford I have pics of from recent memory. Gave this one to my dad for fathers day. He used to run with Gaspar back in the 60's - 70's at the beginning of the A/FX days. My old man ran a 66' Hemi Coronet at the old Irwindale and orange Co strips. As for the kit, these polar lights re-issues go together better than the original Revell offerings. But I still hate trying to get these flimsy chassis straight !

This poor Mustang was found in a box of misfit parts.
Threw together an interior, engine and chassis, put on some slicks and a cool, Green / Purple / Gold color changing paint job.
And just a few extras.....
a few more
