Cool! I like the proportions of the top to the body.

Neeto keeno! The bubble styling really goes with the T-bird body shape.

Awesome. What kit is the custom grille/headlight bar from? Can't wait to see more. When I try to think of suggestions, most of them are unfocused and wacky. What about shaving the fins? Skirted front and rear wheels? "Marquis"-style side coves or wheel arch cutouts? Bullet-shaped rearview mirrors on each side? How about inward-sloping fins, like a toned-down version of the Alpha Romeo BAT concept car?

Awesome. What kit is the custom grille/headlight bar from? To my eyes it looks like the custom grille/headlight-assembly from JoHan’s original (flatbox issue) 1964 Plymouth Fury.

These pictures are from earlier this week. The white front and blue rear grille shells are from a parts collection I got from a very good friend not too long ago. I've been using them as I can on new builds.The front shell is mostly unmodified and the grille was sanded down to fit. I'll be making white fillers for the Lucas headlights. The rear shell has been modded just a tad to fit. The grille for this one also came out of the stash and was modified to fit and then the headlights were removed. When I searched for lenses I found this pair that I had made a few years ago from an old Revell parts Pack piece. Surprisingly, they fit perfectly into the openings. So far so good.

I always enjoy watching what you create Gary! It's neat that you can grab 'junk' from a parts box and turn it into a work of art!

I like it! Very "Predicta"-like. I was waiting to see how you would resolve the shapes around the front grille...I can't quite tell what you've done with it, but it's looking good!

The front fender tips/grille shell and the hood are in the works, slowly but steadily evolving. No Predicta comments are allowed here! All other comments are most welcomed though. Ed says I have to say LOL here. Done Gary
