Awesome 'stang! Love the details and the light weathering.

István Szücs
Looks good!

I liked the book as I like your lovely model!

Christian W
This is cool. I like the built of kits to remember personell things.

David Orr
Love it. There's nothing quite like a General Lee (or a Daisy Duke for that matter).

David Orr
Excellent work. That old Country Charger kit was a fun one. I used it or my General Lee build. It took a bit of chopping and sanding to get some of the parts to fit properly.

gorby
Nice. Another of my favourite films. 🙂

David Orr
Nice. Are you going to do a blue and a white one as well?

We're not from Wisconsin but my wife bought a sweatshirt there while traveling the US in the 80s. There is a photo of her with this car wearing the shirt so that is why the shirt is in the front seat.

Even if it's just for your Mrs I hope there will be some photos for us to 🤞

I'll add a few. It's a simple build that I haven't had time to finish. Should be soon. I'm building from a Franklin Mint diecast.

Very nice!

Another kit that proved poor fitment at final assembly. Otherwise a fun build.

gorby
Nice work. I loved this film when I was a kid.

Neuling
Looks good. More pictures would be nice!

Brent Caughy Author
Thanks. Just moved. It's packed away right now but I'll add more when settled.

Although I only do 1/48 aircraft, this project caught my attention as the movie is one of my favorites with Redford and Dunaway at their best!!! The model looks great!!! Congrats!
I think there is a Ford Bronco at the opening of another favorite movie of mine, the "China Syndrome" of 1979, but at these scenes it's very clean and bright 🙂
I like yours better, all worn, dirty and rusty !!!
Looking forward to more photos once you get the chance!!

(The strange thing is that the car in the "Three days of the condor" movie is a 1970 Bronco, which, at the time of filming (1975) should have been only 5 years old, so rather new and not as battered.

The car in the "China Syndrome" is a 1978 Bronco model, so when it was filmed (1979) it was indeed new.

Thanks very much. This kit was really a first attempt at weathering a model. I had left this hobby behind years ago but a number of YouTube posters showed me all of the secrets I never knew as a kid.
y thoughts on the Condor Bronco was that I think they may have sourced it as a used fleet vehicle or such from a utility company or likewise. The paint scheme was not a factory one and I doubt anyone would have actually chosen to paint one that way. I figured a fleet vehicle in New York could get that worn looking in five years. Look what the East Coast does to taxis!
I'll have to watch the China Syndrome again. I had forgotten that Bronco, That movie freaked me out when I was a kid. Scary ideas back then.
Another Michael Douglas Bronco is the" little Mule" in Romancing the Stone. Great scene. I drove a lot of these old Broncos in the past while working for Ford Dealers. The early ones were always my favorites.

Very nice work.

Oh yeah ! The "Powdered Goods" in the back seat is definitely the Coup DE Grâce ! Fabulous work indeed !

Following this one too

George Williams
Nice wheels.

Brent Caughy Author
I actually had to watch the movie frame by frame on my laptop and save screen shots to confirm those wheels on the movie car. I was pleased when I found that my kit had the correct rims. For the tires I wasn't clear what the movie car had but I had these pad printed Goodyear tires and decided they were too correct not to use them. Thanks for the comment.

Neuling
Nice!

George Williams
Very nice modelling, especially in this scale.

Neuling
Cool project!

Brent Caughy Author
Thanks. First time painting with all acrylics.

Bob Hall
Sweet, a forgotten classic show. Great job ! Funny thing I just dug this kit out of old stuff a had from decades ago ! 🤣

Brent Caughy Author
Funny as well, I purchased the kit just for the mag wheels to build the Bobby and Rose movie Camaro. I wasn't sure what to do with the kit, then my wife purchased the TV show on DVD and I started watching as I always wanted to see the show. It didn't take long to find inspiration. By then both of the actors had passed along with much of the highway and the ghost idea popped into my head

I loved the movie Thelma and Louise; this is great.

Chris Reimann
Looks awesome!

This wide body and fat wheels looking great!
