Just thought I'd share this.
Model was rebuilt for somebody after they had dropped it.
The front was smashed off and broken along with the body that needed respraying after being badly scratched.
The body was stripped/ repainted and decals redone along with the engine that had parts broken off and needed the same treatment done to repair it.
4 coats of blue were applied, then body left to dry before rubbing with compound and waxing.
Doors had been broken off and needed repair which were a bitch to get right again.
The kit is made by ??? and is Half diecast/Plastic...so it made a welcome change to current projects being built.

Very nice refurbish P-man. I wouldn't believe it was broken if you hadn't said so.

It's great to see you posting builds again.

Hopefully you'll share the other projects you mentioned too. :)

Welcome back, Pman!

It's been quite a while since we've heard from you..I missed you, and your shine! :D
Seriously now, the Ford looks quite amazing. You have done a great job recuperating it. I would never suspect it had so much damage done to it if you hadn't said so!

Once again, welcome back!

Max never had a blue falcon!

Seriously, glad to have you back and bringing such an eclectic model to boot!

Welcome back Pman :) Top job as always :thumbsup:

Never seen this kind of car here in Europe. It looks like a Capri. Is it the same base?
