I should have read the fine print! Well I did and it said curbside model, I'm thinking kits are all really curbside models but in this case it meant no engine! Damned annoying as I've been pleased with my engine builds of late. A real mixed bag of a model. Great features include one clear plastic piece for all windows, nice decal set, and 4 screws to attach the chassis to the body ensuring an accurate and tight fit. Negatives are chrome headlight covers with decals provided to cover them, and moulded door handles, wipers and most interior parts.

Its a great car though, they sold well here in Australia, all four doors, may have sold 2 doors but I cannot recall seeing any.

Negatives aside, it looks nice and has the fidelity to carry off a darn good looking Ford Galaxie!

Geoff.  Might not have an engine, but you did a superb job on it.
