I've had three Fords over the past ten years.... To me it stands for 'Fix Or Repair Daily'...

Re: Revell '56 Ford F-100-Overall Progress So Far....11/25
Not much of an update here as I've been getting ready for the Thanksgiving holiday. I tore the linoleum flooring up from my spare bathroom and prepared the floor for tile so that's taken a lot of my focus and time but I did manage to get the fire extinguisher installed, hood emblems on and the fuel tank re-installed after chopping a good 1/4" out of its length for the fire extinguisher to fit. Going to have to re-adhere the passenger side door as it popped out a little at the bottom. No worries. I'll be back on it after the holidays. Speaking of which. Happy Thanksgiving to all of you who celebrate it!!!
If you blow the first image up and look really close you can see the flames. It's a subtle effect that looks great under light

Re: Revell '56 Ford F-100-Overall Progress So Far....11/25
Scratch???? Where?? lol. After all the polishing this thing has gotten there better not be a scratch!
Thanks guys. Well I had to sum up where I'm at with this build. There's hardly any parts left for assembly but my main issue is fit and assembly order. The steps can't go on until the body and bed are mounted up permanently, the windows can't go in until I've got all the work in the cab done, cab can't go on until the inner fender liners are installed, bumpers are the last thing to go on and I haven't decided if I'm going to use that outside rear view mirror yet........
All in all here are the parts that I have left to install,
![Image](http://i1061.photobucket.com/albums/t469/bf109g430mm/Revell%2056%20Ford%20F-100%20Street%20Demons/001_zpsf6xkyccq.jpg)

and my "To Do List" ...
1. Install rear bumper
2. Install front bumper
3. Space front of body up on frame for proper engine to hood clearance
4. Install gas cap
5. Install hood hinges onto hood
6. Install hood onto body
7. Connect engine coolant hoses to radiator
8. Install rear view mirror and dice
9. Install windows into cab
10. Install body onto frame
11. Install bed onto frame ensuring the alignment of cab and bed
12. Install both sidesteps after cab and bed are installed.
13. Fabricate interior/ engine compartment isolators onto body
14. Install windows into cab
15. Install both inner fender wells
As you can see, we are down to the last fiddly bits of this build. I'm already cleaning up the bench for the next build......
