Completed: Ford Fairlane "sleeper"

Built the reissued and upgraded '64 Ford Fairlane recently for a review. This kit is based on the Thunderbolt and street machine variants, Revell has now added a stock hood and steel wheels with poverty caps. It does not build stock, but does build into a very convincing "sleeper"...looks like Grandma's car, but will put the smackdown on any unsuspecting challengers :cool:

Painted it in my favorite vintage sleeper paint scheme, black w/red interior.

Looks awesome, Bob. Great job and the black/red suits the car well.

Damn nice paint Bob. Definitely has the sleeper status.

Very nice and clean build! Very good foto's as usual!

That black is outstanding !!!

Excellent subject and looks beautiful.

Beautiful, I love the tail.

It looks sinister! Something that the FBI or MIB or Mafia would drive? :)

I guess there was quite a bit of BMF used on that?

Excellent build Bob, gotta love the sleepers.

Thanks!

Yes, a fair amount of BMF was used. I've had models with more...but not lately.
