I have decided to go as far as I can in this challenge. I will create a new mold using this Monogram body and then use the new resin body for the model itself.
This car has been on that "to do" list. I have done a few GM models, so it's time a FORD joined the ranks.
Here are the basic running gear parts I will use.
Will update with all parts links and begin with body prep. Just showing my choice for now. Figure what better way to close the year out than finally picking my build :clap:

Thankyou Crocket...I must be getting dense. I'll look on the desk see what's hiding in the pile. It's time I did something productive and related to my hobbies.
I've been out of circulation since spring when my wife passed, but I'm gonna do something and try harder.
