T-bird model cars... who has one? Reply #30 – January 10, 2006, 02:23:55 PM Quote from: Thunder ChickenCool model, but WTF is up with those tail lights? Did you paint 'em like that or is it like that from factory? And if so, I wonder if tail lights like that exist? Some of our European members would be interested in knowing... well.. I bought it like that, but yeah i bought it from Europe, France I think.. on ebay. Quote Selected

T-bird model cars... who has one? Reply #34 – January 10, 2006, 07:00:16 PM As far as a c6 tranny is concerned,the Revell/Monogram Talladega has that.Also,as far as welds are concerned,you would have to get 2 sets(4)of front wheels From the Glidden prostockers.To make the back ones a little deeper than the front,use the back ring from the skinny fronts and glue it to the front of the wheel.If someone has a few sets of these wheels,check it out for yourself,you may be surprised at how this looks.

T-bird model cars... who has one? Reply #36 – January 10, 2006, 08:59:10 PM I understand the price thing there.It's just something i was doing when i was younger.I must have bought 20 of the Glidden prostockers back then(over time)and used everyone for parts.Baxo,that is one beautiful bird model.What scale is it?It would be great to make a resin mold from and make a few bucks.ChuckW,nice body work.I thought about doing the same thing,butI always thought the rear fenders on the TC model wasn't quite round enough to work for the 83 to 86.Was too afraid that i would screw up the fender lip trying to round it a little more.How does the interior shell fit in prostock body?Any issues there?Anyone out there have any extra prostock bird tail lights?

T-bird model cars... who has one? Reply #40 – January 10, 2006, 10:19:23 PM Nope. That's a SC, and it's a super-thin lexan body for R/C cars. Here's a quickie run-down of 83-88 TBird models in 1/24 (no Cougs cause they sadly didn't make any):Monogram Frank Iaconio 83 Pro-Stock (white, low scoop, split wing)Monogram Lee Shepard 84 Pro-Stock (white, high scoop, single wing)Monogram Bob Glidden 85 Pro-Stock (white, low scoop, split wing)Monogram Bob Glidden 87 Pro-Stock (best Pro-Stock kit ever made, red or white)Monogram Stock 87 TC (red, comes with a Motorsport wing and a bodykit)Revell Matt & Debbie Hay 87 TC Pro-Street (pink with a twin-blown 351, tube chassis)Revell "RedHot" Pro-Street 86 (actually the 84 Pro-stock kit with gold chrome in red)Revell "Muscle Machines" 3-car set (comes with a py Beretta and a pier Firebird model and a decal-less 87 Glidden Pro Stock)Monogram "TBird Heritage" set (comes with a good 56, a better 58, and the stock 87 TC)Motorworks by Revell 87 TC (rehash of the original Monogram in silver with decals)Monogram 83-86 NASCAR stockers (they made like 6 different ones, all identical)Model Empire 83-86 NASCAR stocker (reissue of the above with a certificate for Slixx decals)Revell/Monogram 87-88 NASCAR stocker (again, like 6 different ones, all the same, and not made until like 98 when TBirds wern't even NASCARS anymore!)Model Empire 87-88 NASCAR stocker (again, a reissue of the above) Quote Selected

Reply #43 – January 10, 2006, 11:53:15 PM Quote from: 84t-birdi havent been able to find one of a thunderbird like mine or any like my truck but i am currently working on a 1929 model A rodster and after it is a 1965 2+2 fastback mustang. the last one finished was a 1949 murcury coup that i did as a rat rod. its nice to see that im not the only childish person here.jeremyThere was a kit made of the truck. My dad was into models a long tie ago and after he died i got all his old stuff. well in there was a 76 F150 but its a stepside. only thing i could find was the cab and the instructins. I have a boat load of parts from him and about 20 finished cars/trucks but most have been damaged Quote Selected
