1971 Ford Ranger Pickup

this is another one of Moebius awesome kits if you have never bought a Moebius kit Moebius is really good and this is defiantly one of those good kits it in there line this kit has crisp modeling and very little to no flash this kit was built so well i want to buy and build more because they are so much fun to build i want to buy another one of these and build it as a work truck the first time i bought this kit i built it box stock the second time i bought it i made it into a service truck this kit is pretty spot on i have gone to shows and know people who have 71 rangers and every detail on this kit is that to the real truck which is awesome PROS: awesome kit, fun to build, very accurate, many possibility's CONS:on the more expensive side, tailgate requires some sanding, the front wind shield can break if not careful as it fits in very tight with the model overall the pros knock out the cons on this kit and i highly suggest it to any old truck lover ford fan or even dodge and gm fans out there this is an awesome kit and well worth the money!

Was impressed with the over all quality of this model. I look forward to building this model and will post some pictures when I have completed it. Very well packaged.

This is an fairly easy model to assemble. I decided on a two-tone color scheme and painted the truck bed in flat black. (my photos are posted). I airbrush all of my models--at least the exterior parts. I display my models in clear plastic cases (AMT-600) available from HobbyLinc. If you paint and detail the engine compartment, it is nice to be able to show it. So, this model does not come with hood hinges; so I went into my left-over parts boxes and came up with two items that worked quite well to suspend the hood in an open position. Did not find any particular areas that were troublesome. This model should be geared to the over 15 modeler.
