ranma Posted August 12, 2017 Posted August 12, 2017 (edited) From on the work bench, Here is the $1.00 '58 Ford Fairlane 500. I went with a well care for survivor look, with some paint faded but otherwise still nice looking. pictures are from before, during and after repaint /rebuild. ***NOTE The windshield was fixed after the pictures were taken.....

misterNNL Posted August 12, 2017 Posted August 12, 2017 Love this build.I always loved the styling of the '58's.Thanks for sharing.
Sixties Sam Posted August 13, 2017 Posted August 13, 2017 Good save! Nice colors, and good work! I wish Revell would make a 58 of the same quality as their 57 sedan.....someday.....maybe!Sam
impcon Posted August 13, 2017 Posted August 13, 2017 The two tone really does make that model outstanding!!! Nice choice of colours.. looks fantabulous!!!!!
John Goschke Posted August 13, 2017 Posted August 13, 2017 I like it. That's the same color combo as the rusty-but-ran-good $150 four door sedan I had in the '70s – nothing more fun than a cheap '58 Ford!
espo Posted August 13, 2017 Posted August 13, 2017 Great looking rebuild. The colors are era perfect.
