3 basic Fords for fun

Tanker- Builder, I now see why you mentioned the Explorer's tailgate.  It looks quite dented on either side of the tailgate handle.  That is NOT the case.  Those are reflections in the photo causing that.  So that apparent flaw is "fixed" but I would like to know your techiniques in fixing such dents and depressions anyway. 

The greatest problem is the windshield itself from the T-Bird and secondarily the windshield post; how to fix these so that they look realistic.

 Thanks.

I have two questions.

First question is this. How well do you know bodywork?  Somewhat

Second question. Do you mind some helpful advice to make those even more outstanding, more than they are now?  DEFINITELY YES

Would you like an uncracked windshield?   YES

Secondly, would you like a nice smooth tailgate on that Ford Explorer?   YES

Based on your description the "T

Bird was a lot of fine work around the windshield.  I can advise you how IF you Wish, otherwise-they stand as very good restorations.           T.B.

Thank you Tanker-Builder! Yes to all but the tailgate on the Explorer; altho it is diecast, I might as well say "yes" to this also. 

I am an older Senior hobby hermit that has looked for a "mentor" for years but haven't ever found one, so I've just gone it alone.   Any and all suggestions and help are very much appreciated. Back in the early 60s my late brother and I did customize plastic models using plastic aluminum.  Body work since then has been a relatively minor undertaking.  Reproducing that windshield post was really out of my league as well as the busted windshield. 

Don't mind at all, actually looking forward to it, so bring on the helpful advice.

Thanks!
