1975 ford gran torino

[michelle]

i decided to do it in starsky and hutch colors but did a wheel swap since i needed the ansen sprint slotted aluminum wheels for another car i will be doing  and i did not  add the police light and radio 
this was a new un opened kit yet there were a couple parts were missing when i took the parts from the bags the chrome mirror inserts and rear view mirror

Nice build! What are the wheels from (I really like them - good choice) ?

Nice job.  The look like the wheels from the AMT or MPC 71-73 Mustang which were used on other Fords.  Maybe someone has some spare parts from this kit they can sen you.

Very nice looking Gran Torino. The interior looks great and the paint finish and the stripes turned out well also.
