Nice. I always thought this body was better detailed and more accurate than he 3 n 1. Can't wait to see it in color.

John, That's gonna look sweet in color, almost needs a "blond seat-cover" to cruise it around! Nice stance. Great wheels and 'caps. Hardtop. Dolled up just right.,, so far what's not to like.

John, ya better keep your eyes on those Fiestas. The number one hubcap to steal I believe. There were several knockoffs out there though, so if ya was running a set of those, no big loss! Gary

The T-Birds of this era can be built into very stylish Customs. I'm sure that's what this one will be when it's done. I'll be following.

I still offer this hardtop as well as a porthole version of the same top..........but both will be discontinued here soon once the molds are used up. I have both versions in stock. As for the body, I have compared the older Craftsman Jr. body to the later "kit" body and there's not much difference in tooling other than the hood being molded shut and the windshield frame being molded to the Craftsman body....going by memory that is. That being said, some of my Craftsman bodies had the fender skirts molded in and others did not. The ones that did not have them did not appear to have any evidence that they were there and removed either. Yep, folks, as Ed points out there's precious little difference between the "Custom Jr.," later "Craftsman" and "Trophy Series" '57 T'bird kits, other than a separate chrome windshield frame and an opening hood with engine compartment. So the resin tops that Ed makes will fit all issues of the AMT '57 T'bird like a glove, while looking 57 million times better than the top that came in later reissues of the Trophy T'bird! Get your's today! They're Froghawk Customs Endorsed!

Gary There used to be all kinds of articles about securing your hubcaps in the little pages, John ya better dig up a few of those! Wondering which of the releases of the AMT T-Bird that is supposed to be released with the '60 F-100. Hoping that they dig up some of the cool doodads and open all the gates on the molds to give the builder the best chance at the Koolest T-Bird ever. Ed, you should probably think about casting up some of those tops when the T-Bird gets re-released, I'll probably be interested in one.

I have a crap ton of both versions of the hardtop in stock for some time now.......they're not really a hot seller. I am really hoping the upcoming re-release of the T-bird kit brings in some sales so I am not stuck with 40+ of each of these hardtops! LOL!
