I would like to say that you have a great insperation for the hobby !! I am now getting back into the hobby after a long time now ! Your modeling skills have givening me an insporation to build models again !!
My friend has a real 66 Fairlane, numbers matching car with 427 side oiler with a 4 speed, lift off fiberglass hood. Expensive to restore. Great job, reviews of new kits, and stories! Keep on building!
Love your videos, you explain everything sooo great, I like to build, What if!!! This would be a great Dyno Don car OR what If Sox and Martin ran a Ford 427 in super stock in 66??? Lol
It's funny how your taste changes as you get older . I hated these cars when I was young ,but give me one now with a big V8 and I'd be happy. It's like the original Ford Bronco, I hated their looks but love them now. Another great job.
I have the older issue kit, but I will get this one. Anyway after 60 years of model car building I just noticed something for the first time none of my engines have oil dipsticks. And, I am still learning from you THANKYOU.
Wow🤯 I don't know how you ration your time.. I can lose a whole morning or afternoon just prepping a model 👍 and that's when I only have a few kits 😀 your awesome.. Years of practice I guess and time management and strong will / strategy 👍
Heck yeah bud, the way you did that is right up my alley, I don’t like them prim and pretty, shiny and all that stuff! Anywho, excellent job brother man, as always!
Hi Chris. On the mod podge, I bought the red labeled bottle and I see you have the blue. Does it make a difference? The only thing I can think of is ones matte and the other is gloss? Will they work the same way?same dry time?
I always thought AMT was an American company based in Michigan, not China. I may have to start researching where my kits and supplies are made. After Covid, I'm not buying anything from China unless I have no other option. The build looks great. You do good engines.
Did you find gluing the front end on issue ? I'm on my second GT kit (the original 90's one with white car on box) . I found the firewall pushed the front out .
Thanks for a great review Chris, you know somebody has to get the early pre-release and review it, I'm just glad that it's you you do a very very good job with your reviews and your builds. Yes the engine this is definitely a keeper! I will probably pick one up just for the engine and some of the other spare parts and maybe throw a 289 in the car itself. Thanks again and keep up the good work!
Great build! I wish R2 would have fixed the firewall / body issues. The hood sits below the fenders and takes some work to align. I built this one back in 93/94 and had to fight with it then. Keep up the good work!!
A 4 door of this would be great. It was used in Dragnet. Nice inner engine detail. A kid could learn a lot from this kit. This is a very nice channel. No matter what is reviewed. You sure got some gumption. Was hoping for street, but, still all fun. I can buy it myself & go street. Nice job.
I'm sounding like a broken record but once again Chris, a great build and review. You're making me broke and R2 rich. You need to go on commission. Keep making videos, I'll keep watching.
Looks really nice. Seems like its a rebox of the Fairlane 390 kit with new parts witch is a superb kit.👌thank you for sharing and I will definetely get it as soon as its availble here in Sweden 👍
Great looking results Chris! That is one really nice kit. Love the off-white. One of the first cars I drove was a off-white 63 Fairlane with bronze interior. Love the decals and owner options. JUST GREAT sums it up!!
I want to know why you always paint the windshield washer bag red On my '66 Mustang my FOMOCO wiper bag was in the ford engine blue or medium blue with a little staining would be good coz mine was faded and some of the white FOMOCO wording was missing I think the red bags went with the late 50's Fords when some engines were painted Ford Red !! I built this model back in the late 80's but this Round2 kit looks alot better except my AMT didn't have those nasty reinforcement tabs behind the A piller; more body work uhhhggg think I'll make a charcoal / gray 66 Fairlane high boy!! Nice job on the interior and its great that you customized the center console I do mine all the time the way I want it That's where I take lots of liberties that and buying Hoppin Hydro kits and modifying them to fit under different models!! Go modeling!!! 😉
Great looking car, Chris. My first job , my boss had a 66 with a 289, I t was the late 70s. We did all kinds of things to it to try and get better gas mileage,
Even though I'm a Chevy guy I love this car. I just hear the roar of that 427 side oiler as it's booking down the road. I also love that egg shell white (that's why it looks like to me) As always you did a bang up job Chris
HPI guy just wanting to know if you enter any of your model in model shows me and my brothers when we were growing up we built models to when we were growing up.
Awesome video Chris! Granma had the mercury comet caliente version. I always thought i was going to get that car when i was old enuff to drive. When gram was done driving it, she gave it to my cousin who was 2 years older than me and he wrecked it in a snow storm.
I was building this and I found it highly annoying that the engine is hidden by a hood that DOESN'T even open. Why did I waste time building and painting it? Not fond of AMT at this point.
I’ll never understand the people that get all in their feelings cause people get review copies of items early. It’s a strategy that’s been going on for about a decade now, not just in model building. It’s advertising for the manufacturer, in this case Round 2, and also helps the consumer decide if they want to purchase the product. Want stuff early? Build a review channel and build an audience. It’s not easy work.
Awesome work as always , a great kit for sure .The finish product is great . What you were explaining in the start of the video goes for a lot of thinks , in construction , tools area advertised , and then we don't get them on the sites for 9 months . Windows and mirrors never show up on time , they are all out at sea . Furniture is always one year late , also out at sea , or still in China . That is how it is . Mike .
The people who whine about you getting kits first are the same ones who don't understand how car magazines and outdoor magazines get all of their product before it hits the showrooms. These companies figured out long ago that word of mouth sells their products.
Another great lookin build Chris. Love how you just do things your way, keep it up. I built the 90's release of this kit which I still have. I will be definitely picking up this one to build with the expanded decals and 2'n1 options. I used the White Chiffon a few weeks ago on a couple builds for interior and roof, looks great.
Great job brother. I like the custom center console idea. I'm thinking the stock vehicle has a shifter on the column and the guy wanted a floor shifter so he created a base for it.
Have one to do so... here to learn...
I am mostly a plane and military scale model builder so i need to check this video.
Thank you for this video.❤
Very nice build as always. I bought 2. One to build, and one for a rainy day.
Steve your amazing guy
I would like to say that you have a great insperation for the hobby !! I am now getting back into the hobby after a long time now ! Your modeling skills have givening me an insporation to build models again !!
Go for it!
Great build my friend! Cool kit!
Thank you kindly!
It's on the shelf now!
Glad to see no axle holes in the block like the Super Stocker.
Love the skirts... I'm gonna try the masking tape for texture... It's gona be a late night in the shop I can tell already, lolol...
Just love your story's they bring back a lot of memories of that time and era
My friend has a real 66 Fairlane, numbers matching car with 427 side oiler with a 4 speed, lift off fiberglass hood. Expensive to restore.
Great job, reviews of new kits, and stories! Keep on building!
Sounds great!
That has GOT to be the best scale R-code 427 Ford engine I've EVER seen, and I've been building models since 1964 ! GREAT detailing, Chris !
Watching you hand paint with the music is almost Bob Ross-sh
Thanks a lot, he was a great artist!
Wimbledon white was a popular Ford color.
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
I love the long videos. I know most people don't cuz they don't have time but I make time lol. Keep it up Chris
Love your videos, you explain everything sooo great, I like to build, What if!!! This would be a great Dyno Don car OR what If Sox and Martin ran a Ford 427 in super stock in 66??? Lol
He get time 😁
Absolutely stunning!
great videos, i really enjoy watching them!
Glad you like them!
Nice kit & awesome build thanks for sharing
I just started modelling a month ago and your videos really gave me the inspiration to start so thank you for that!
You can do it!
Always love the builds you are a pro
Thanks!
Really Sweet Ford!! Well Done!✌🏻
It's funny how your taste changes as you get older . I hated these cars when I was young ,but give me one now with a big V8 and I'd be happy. It's like the original Ford Bronco, I hated their looks but love them now. Another great job.
I built this kit when it was first released, mid to late 90's. Builds really easy, and it is very convincing when finished.
You still putting videos up Vyk?
As always Chris great work!!! Talk atcha later bro', Your Buddy Ol' Pal Mr. Notorious B.I.L.L.
Love that off-white color. Excellent stuff for sure. Really great job.
I have the older issue kit, but I will get this one. Anyway after 60 years of model car building I just noticed something for the first
time none of my engines have oil dipsticks. And, I am still learning from you THANKYOU.
You have inspired me to build models. Thank you.
Great color combo!!
Wow🤯 I don't know how you ration your time.. I can lose a whole morning or afternoon just prepping a model 👍 and that's when I only have a few kits 😀 your awesome.. Years of practice I guess and time management and strong will / strategy 👍
As usual, another great build/review. I always look forward to your new videos.
Wow, another winner Chris, period perfect build your way!! Keep them coming!!
Great subject matter Chris! Turned out wonderful!
Wonderful build!
Looks like another must have. As usual another masterpiece by you thanks for showing it to us 👍🇦🇺
excellent awesome superb outstanding impressive job you did on the car.
Awesome decal sheet
Great review and awesome build.love that Georgia clay for interior.cant wait to get my hands on one. Thanks Chris . Peace.
Heck yeah bud, the way you did that is right up my alley, I don’t like them prim and pretty, shiny and all that stuff! Anywho, excellent job brother man, as always!
Sweet build I have 2 mint original kits screw on chassis yours looks great can't wait for the next build
Chris always a pleasure to watch your videos. Great build. Thank you .
Glad you like them!
Always liked this body style. This will be a must have,Thanks for the build video.
Lovely results on that engine great detail work as always. Kit looks great. Have a great weekend.
Great build up once again stay safe
have you ever had to wet sand a model car? also what paint brushes do you use? The car though looks really good!
I do not sand anything. I spray and pray, easy peasy modeling.
Hi Chris. On the mod podge, I bought the red labeled bottle and I see you have the blue. Does it make a difference? The only thing I can think of is ones matte and the other is gloss? Will they work the same way?same dry time?
I can only vouch for what I use.
I'm not sure matte would be a good choice for glass since you want it crystal clear and glossy.
Great looking build and review Chris. Thanks for sharing.
Great job as usual always learning from you Chris
What do these new kits might come out
Outstanding job as always Chris! Picked this one up yesterday at my local Hobby Town. Cannot wait to build it! Keep up the great work that you do!
Awesome! Thank you!
I always thought AMT was an American company based in Michigan, not China. I may have to start researching where my kits and supplies are made. After Covid, I'm not buying anything from China unless I have no other option. The build looks great. You do good engines.
If you take that stance, I hate to tell you, you won’t be buying much of anything anymore. 95% of the product on store shelves are made in China.
@@IamGalvatron I know. I know. I'm kinda torn that is all. I love this hobby.
I'd like to see a full build video of the polyglas gasser 2, is there one available?
I did one years ago, very basic review, you can search the channel homepage using the search bar. Thanks
Great build once again, Chris! Looking forward to November when this one comes out!!
Thanks!
Did you find gluing the front end on issue ? I'm on my second GT kit (the original 90's one with white car on box) . I found the firewall pushed the front out .
I've heard some have to remove the horns and the little lip of plastic on the fire wall and then it fits well.
That Fairlane turned out great Chris! Excellent job as usual.
Tom S.
Thanks 🤙 and I like the longer video
Very cool mate👍 I'm gonna buy this kit
I have a question can I use tan or suede for the seats and the dashboard
Thanks for a great review Chris, you know somebody has to get the early pre-release and review it, I'm just glad that it's you you do a very very good job with your reviews and your builds. Yes the engine this is definitely a keeper! I will probably pick one up just for the engine and some of the other spare parts and maybe throw a 289 in the car itself. Thanks again and keep up the good work!
Great update on open box review. It turned out awesome as always. Thank you for doing step by steps. Have a great week buddy 👍👍👊👊😎
That is a good looking car Chris, great job love the color choice 👍👍
Great build! I wish R2 would have fixed the firewall / body issues. The hood sits below the fenders and takes some work to align. I built this one back in 93/94 and had to fight with it then. Keep up the good work!!
I just grabbed this today and it only had 3 tires... First time I've had a missing part
Looks awesome another gem!
Awesome build and customisation Chris! Beautiful colours, amazing my friend. 😉👍
Does this kit have a stock hood option - without the scoop? If it was shown I missed it. Thanks
I remember, back in high school, riding to school in my friend's red 66 fairlane 90mph on a dirt road. I definitely wouldn't do that now! 🏎☁😲
A 4 door of this would be great. It was used in Dragnet. Nice inner engine detail. A kid could learn a lot from this kit. This is a very nice channel. No matter what is reviewed. You sure got some gumption. Was hoping for street, but, still all fun. I can buy it myself & go street. Nice job.
Looks really good, Awesome.
You Rock as a build it relaxed and easy guy, Keep em coming
👍👍😎😎
Great build chris, always a pleasure to watch your detailing 👍👍
I'm sounding like a broken record but once again Chris, a great build and review. You're making me broke and R2 rich. You need to go on commission. Keep making videos, I'll keep watching.
Is there a 1069 Ford Fairlane 500 made yet? Thank you...Judy in Nova Scotia, Canada
Are you the guy playing the music?
Looks really nice. Seems like its a rebox of the Fairlane 390 kit with new parts witch is a superb kit.👌thank you for sharing and I will definetely get it as soon as its availble here in Sweden 👍
Just out of curiosity...who's puertorican. I here the music in the background. Big fan by the way.
Millions of people are Puerto Rican, and I think it sounds cool myself. :)
Great looking results Chris! That is one really nice kit. Love the off-white. One of the first cars I drove was a off-white 63 Fairlane with bronze interior. Love the decals and owner options. JUST GREAT sums it up!!

how do you keep your superglue from glueing it self togeather i go to use it the next day and the cap is glued
Even though I'm a Chevy guy I love this car. I just hear the roar of that 427 side oiler as it's booking down the road. I also love that egg shell white (that's why it looks like to me) As always you did a bang up job Chris
I believe the color from Ford is called Wimbledon White.
@@johnclemans7802 now that you mention it I believe you've correct
HPI guy just wanting to know if you enter any of your model in model shows me and my brothers when we were growing up we built models to when we were growing up.
Sucking in birds - lol. Another great build, thanks.
Awesome video Chris! Granma had the mercury comet caliente version. I always thought i was going to get that car when i was old enuff to drive. When gram was done driving it, she gave it to my cousin who was 2 years older than me and he wrecked it in a snow storm.

Yes that's a reissue of the 90s release. I think AMT may have had it back in the 60s as well. But that probably had a one piece chassis.
Nice job mate, looks great on steeliez!
I'm dating myself but my dad had one. Nice build Chris thanks!

This kit was originally released by AMT/Ertl in 1992.
Love the videos , just hoped off the galaxy video when I got this notification, keep up the great work .
I own a '66 with a 289. I've been thinking about getting a flat hood and a 289 to build a replica.
Great job brother. I like the custom center console idea. I'm thinking the stock vehicle has a shifter on the column and the guy wanted a floor shifter so he created a base for it.
I'm rather embarrassed at how many of your videos I've watched and only just now noticed that you're left handed.
Haha, no worries, as long as you're having fun watching!
Use your caps off your spray paint cans to put your model paint into.
It helps it from spilling over.
