No, but I owned two of them in real life.
(they were built within 3 months of each other)

Still have the Ford shop manual, and five (5)
True Spoke wire wheels for one of them.
Probably still got a big Holly from one
and a bunch of other parts. They are hard
to work on. (electric, and vacuum wise)

Nothing like a moon roof the size of another's
car door..... (460, w/posi kinda nice too)

Did you have a Mark V (last 460 was offered in 1978).
Mark VII had 5.0L (believe all were efi by then) and I
believe a BMW Turbo Diesel was offered for one year.

Excuse me, you are right. Doh...
I had two 78 MK V's

No matter I am looking at a *dead* 88 Lincoln MK VIII
LSC right now. (I like Lincolns)

Matter of fact, it has 84k miles, and a 5 liter
Mustang engine that has been run on Mobil 1
all it's life. It has an exhaust leak, and a few
electrical problems, don't plan of fixing it.
Body's straight, but it's got to go soon...

Anyone want the engine, make offer soon.
(and I'm not kidding)

Hi 5.0,

I'd guess E-bay.  Only Art knows how many he cast.

Bill do you have any resin kits you want to sell?

No Lincolns.  My fascination with Lincolns waned when they took it
'aero'.

I only have the one AAM Fox-body Mustang and I built it as a model of my
real one.  I wish that I had gotten one of the notchback bodies.

Oh yeah, I DO have one of his '62 Studebaker GT Hawks.  I almost forgot
about that one.  Lovely car and a great tribute to Brooks Stevens.

And last I knew, Art ain't casting any more.  :^(

Any word on handing the 'legacy' along to another molder?  I sure would
like to get a '57 Ford 300 (or whatever that short coupe was called).

I've read that some of his stuff has been copied by R & R Vacuumcraft.
Hendrix makes a Club Victoria body for the '57.  I don't think it's the
same one you mean.  If you remember Mark Gustavson's model in the Bare
Metal Foil ads 10 years ago, you've seen a Club Vicky.
Someone over on the HH board was asking about '57 Custom 300 bumpers
today.  There must be one around again.
Maybe a good place to check would be Resin Realm.  The last time I was
there he carried a listing of Hendrix's products.

.Hey Bill do you want to sell your AAM fox-body Mustang?
And who else you know might have some AAM kits around?

No, sorry.  I think that my nearest friend into cars may have some resin
but it's more likely to be Modelhaus stuff and just parts at that.
FoMoCo? Nah, he's a GM man.
