Re: Tim's '56 T-Bird
Some good detail work there. TBirds are lovely cars
Enjoyment over accuracy. That's my motto

Re: Tim's '56 T-Bird
Thanks for the comments chaps. I've been working on the interior today. I tried flocking the carpet but it looks a bit moth eaten so I might scrape it off and paint it instead.
The bodywork has been polished and the lights and grille fitted.
I should be able to finish it off tomorrow.

Re: Tim's '56 T-Bird
I scraped off the flocking and painted the carpets. Then I added some BMF to the door panels and fitted the dashboard.
Then it was time for final assembly.
This is a nice kit that went together without any trouble and I enjoyed building it.

That's brilliant Tim and I'm really pleased you got it finished in time.
It looks supurb! Every inch a T-Bird.
Cheers
