That's what I got ...started but i will strip it....

I don't think the decal would make it ...so if someone has a good set? ...I'm open !

If my research are right it's an IMC Ford GT Prototype kit issue in 1964 if i'm not please correct me !

Cool stuff but I could never work with that tiny hardware now, maybe 30 years ago. Good luck with them.

I was actually looking for bolt heads smaller than .5mm, but that was the smallest I could find. How I'm going to get the nuts threaded onto the bolts is still a mystery.

Micro ratchet wrenches of course. Kidding...just out of curiousity, what's going on the bench for the nuts and bolts?

Scale Hardware sells nut drivers for their scale nuts and bolts, but the smallest size they have is .8mm. I am using these for attaching the K-frame to the frame rails and for leaf spring eye bolts on my '69 Dart project.

This is a great kit and by the time it was made was considered a high detail kit. You're right, this is the 1964 prototipe version.

This how I built it, back in 2004:

I hope the pictures of my model can help you in some way...

Got one of these, I know what it is and what is does, interested to see if anyone else does.

If you own a vintage Mopar, one of those and a spare ignition control unit should always reside in the vehicle's glovebox. :D

Rodney you are correct.

It's an ACCEL 150250 Ballast Resistor. What set of wheels will go around it?

Close, BWD Nascar Performance RU6 Ballast Resistor, got it and a spare for my '69 Fury.

It's not a bad idea.

I was just kidding around, but....

Didn't know there were drivers that small.

*Just checked them out. Pretty cool stuff. Might have to try some of their products out.
