That turned out real sweet. I had the 59 Ford Galaxie revell kit which had a multi-piece body too, it didn't fit well either. So I know the work that goes into that kit. Great job on a tough kit. Your looks great!!! Great color too. -Louie

Thanks!! I took it as a personal challenge to build this kit. I first bought it thinking I got the Revell 58 or 59 kit. Boy was I surprised. I had built the 59 Ford retractible when I was younger so I know that kit as well. It didn't survive my youth but I purchased another one in the Skips Fiesta box. I'm a glutton for punishment, I know.

Here's my build-up of essentially the same kit. Mine only came with the custom wheels. As I recall, I got it at Radio Shack (really!) for $3.00 shortly after moving to AZ in 1984. They evidently got the seams in the right place on the body parts 'cause it sure builds up pretty. FMW
