Build Review of Revell's 1964 Ford Fairlane Thunderbolt
Hello, this is my build and review of Revell's '64 Ford Fairlane Thunderbolt in 1/25th scale. Revell kit # 4408 !!! A couple of guys have pointed out to me that the BATTEREY WAS IN THE TRUNK, so you can ignore my comment about the battery missing. Thanks for the feedback!

What a coincidence brother, I'm in the process of building this model next! Thanks for the tips and the 'heads up' of the 'do's and don'ts'. Great job!
Beautifully finished , like all your Fix's (REVELL)😕 the battery would be in the trunk (weight distribution) , the goofy exhaust was the dumb NHRA rules of the time 😑 again , for a Revell kit the finished model is really sweet 👍 😮

Thanks Glenn, I guess the trunk makes sense for the dragster.
Clean. Dig the decals.

Nice and with some these kits much re-engineering required ... see you're sporting a band-aid there on your finger - no disrespect but what about your funky left thumb ?
