3 FORDS

[Nitromethane]

All three models are roughly 1/24 scale or thereabout. The 1961 Ford Thunderbird is an old AMT plastic promo kit car that needed much work. The busted windshield and partially missing passenger-side support post nearly caused me to forget the project and leave the parts in the parts bin. However, with after detailing the interior and repairing the windshield post as best I could, it looked okay enough to lower it as much as possible (all wheels do turn] and apply some finishing touches.

The diecast Maisto Ford Explorer was just detailed some more after having been acquired years ago as one of the six models in the Maisto Custom Car Club Series (2 Camaros, 2 Mustangs, 2 Explorers) circa 1998. I had detailed it some way back when, but upgraged some mor with gold door handles, gold roof racks and chassis detailing.

The Maisto 2014 Ford Mustang GT Street Racer is an older release by Maisto that they took liberties with in styling. I bought this loose at retail for a pittance. With some detailing in black to the side scoops, side ground effects and other body lines, it sharpened it up some. Details were added to the engine, the interior
and the chassis. I filled the two screw holes on the chassis for more realism as well.

Thanks for looking....
