dougwintz Posted December 31, 2016 Share Posted December 31, 2016 (edited) Finally finished this off before the end of the New Year. Definitely a challenge, but fun.

espo Posted December 31, 2016 Share Posted December 31, 2016 Beautiful looking build. I would never have thought of using that color on that year model build, but really makes it standout. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dougwintz Posted January 1, 2017 Author Share Posted January 1, 2017 The only fitment problem I had was with the hood. Couldn't quite get that to fit tightly and I had the same issue with the panel van as well. At some point, I have to just move on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lovefordgalaxie Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 That is a cool looking car. The color is not my cup of tea, but it suits the overall look you wanted to get, kind of a very mild custom?Want this kit for some time, but those are hard to get here.
