Revell 59 Ford Skyliner

Hi Gang Just got this one done this week. It was a challenge to get this to look good. I have at least 2 or 3 hours in the top mechanics alone. A tough one but a cool one. They did fix some of the problems with this kit. Comes with a nice decal sheet for the seats and emblems. Still has the seperate side panels though. I added inner panels in the trunk/top compartment made from gray paper. It looked a little unfinshed with out them. Top is a little tight getting it out of the trunk. It was fun though.
Enjoy. -Louie

Great job! I could never get the rear deck to close with the top down on mine.

Thanks. I had the same problem. I took the chassis/floor panel and bent it down to give the roof more clearance. The instructions say to put the chassis above the rear quarter panel trim but that would put the roof up too high when retracted. so I put it under the molding, which did the trick.-Louie

Looks great, Louie!

All I've ever heard about that kit is that it is a bear. Seldom see finished ones; rarer still to see one look this good.
