AMT restores tooling on '65 Ford kit.

For the first time in almost forty years the '65 Galaxie will be offered with all the original parts. The tooling for the racing parts, including a much more realistic roll cage than the one in the '66 Galaxie kit, has been restored to the tooling, making it a true 3-in-1 kit again. Being offered this time with the Jr. Johnson markings instead of the original Fred Lorenzen scheme, it joins the ranks of the newly re-released AMT favorites.

Ah...Mitchum...me doth thinketh that you may be pulling our leg a bit. Wish you weren't...would be some fun builds here. I'm assuming that the cars displayed are some of your previous outstanding builds?

You would be correct, old buddy. Having this coming week off, I was just getting in the mood by indulging in equal parts of whimsy and wishful thinking on my part and hoping to bring a smile or two at the same time. Not to mention maybe a little gentle prodding of the powers that be at the new AMT, if they're listening.
