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

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.

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?

Thanks!

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