Excellent job!
Rett
Very nice. Always enjoy late models.
A simply great looking '58 ....something you don't see everyday
Excellent replica build and a very nice trailer.
Nice decal work by Greg.
Bob
I am glad to see someone build up a '58 Ford, and do such a beautiful, clean model of one! Love the detail work, right down to the racing harness hardware. I give it an 11.
Very Cool build ! ! ! !
Always have liked the looks of the '58 Ford and this one looks great in race car trim!!
Where did you got the seat belt hardware?
Bob
WOW What an awesome build!
The only thing I can think of is: OUTSTANDING!!!

I don't know where he got his, but I have bought them from Hobby Design, The Model Car Garage, Eduard, and Detail Master.
That is one super-looking tandem! I didn't know they made a '58 sedan (or did you add the pillar?) A+++++ !
Thanks for the comments........the seat belts are Detail Master.....body was a resin with the hood & trunk molded in place, it was a hardtop, I slightly modified the "C" post & added the "B" post, also made the hood ornament which along with the bumpers are air brushed with Molotow chrome
Sweet 58 Ford, Spotter!!! One of the most well done I've seen!!!👍🏻🏁🏁🏁
That is a sweet one! Nice work on the whole package.
Man James...you did an AWESOME job on this replica! Your work on the roof line really looks good!
Awesome! I love the 58's! I have a resin 58 500 hardtop I picked up on ebay. Would love to get a post sedan!
Nice! 8)
Beautiful work Mark! The entire package is astounding... I saw this car run in Nashville several times.
