om617 Posted August 20, 2018 Posted August 20, 2018 Missing Link trans-kit using Revell 1970 Ford Torino Built to represent stock besides tweaked suspension and copy of the Gone in 60 Seconds 67 Mustang GT500 wheels. Thanks for looking,some pictures,taked during some heavy fog.
Snake45 Posted August 20, 2018 Posted August 20, 2018 Beautiful! I didn't realize Missing Link made this. You're making me want to build one (my highest compliment). Well done and model on!
cobraman Posted August 20, 2018 Posted August 20, 2018 Well done ! My BIL had one of these back in the day. Black on black. Was a cool car. 429 I think??
T.Henry Posted August 20, 2018 Posted August 20, 2018 Looks great. Want to paint my Maverick this color.
Merkur XR4Ti Posted August 20, 2018 Posted August 20, 2018 Beautiful! I have the ML body and Torino kit for this very project. Any tips? Looks like you used the Torino engine bay for this project too?

My adivice would be to measure a lot and do mock-ups until you are satisfied. The casting is of the best in business,no issues at all.
Kmb0319 Posted August 20, 2018 Posted August 20, 2018 Man, that’s a sweet looking ride! Outstanding work with the conversion.

Can-Con Posted August 20, 2018 Posted August 20, 2018 Love it. I have an original '70 Cyclone kit I want to do something similar with but can't decide on a color.
StevenGuthmiller Posted August 20, 2018 Posted August 20, 2018 That's some pretty nice work there Tommy! I was going to say that something looked a little strange about the windshield area of this model, but I'm absolutely no expert on these cars. Seems like the A-pillars look pretty thick & the windshield very square & flat. Maybe someone else who does know these cars would know for sure. But hey.......really nice!!! Steve
dave branson Posted August 20, 2018 Posted August 20, 2018 excellent like that color. What paint did you use???
