This time, I happened to pull out the AMT Ford Victoria, affectionately known as the Vicky. I bought it originally for the body style and the fact it could be built in one of three ways. More options always appeal to me.


Before I knew it, I had chopped the top........... and got all this done........ Then life took over for a while and the Vicky sat idle. When I got back into it again I neglected to take lots of in progress pics. Thankfully, I remembered today.

First, the body has been painted. Notice the ribs on the roof. The purists may scoff at the way I've depicted this but I'm pretty sure I've seen one like it in a photo somewhere on the web....maybe.....? Anyway, I like it. I mocked up the engine on the chassis. The distinct lack of "extras" in the driving room is because the chopped roof makes it impossible to see anything anyway. Engine closeup for those who like engine close-ups


That's pretty much where I am right now. I should be able to finish it up reasonably quickly then get back to painting and finishing the trailer before getting back to finishing off the 29 Ford pick up. (Phew! that's a lot of getting back and finishing.)
Thanks for looking.
