1960 Thunderbird (1/32nd scale)

[bh1701]

I completed my 1960 Ford Thunderbird - a 1/32nd scale AMT kit. The exterior is Testor's Honduras Maroon. Only 20 parts to this kit. All of the chrome details were painted by hand. The hardest thing about this kit was the white plastic tires - painting them black while still leaving the base white color of the plastic to represent the whitewalls.

Thanks for looking!

I didn't know that kit could look so good.

Very, very nice!????

[Classicgas]

Very well done on something quite small.

[peekay]

Beautifully built!

Although basic, this kit seems to be a very credible representation of the real thing.

Very cool. Nice work.
I’m working on the same kit, red too!

Shouldn't have mentioned the scale, most would never have believed it to be anything other than 1/25! Just a beautiful model, and doesn't that color just finish it off perfectly?!

Beautiful looking model. I really like the picture from the rear. What a lot of detail in that shot. Nice job.

Very nice job on that Bird Bart as I've been lookin' at those AMT 1/32 scale kits to start my grandson on "glue kits," however his wouldn't come close to your build as he's been workin' on Snap Tite kits and hasen't done any painting or glue assembly as yet. Of course he's only 6 1/2 years old.
