After seeing the great job Tooold did on the Lindberg Devil Drag kit ,I thought I'd show some of Lindberg's related kits that I built a few years ago . The Time Bomb, Mind Blower, and the Ford Fooler .These are the 1970s versions of the same kit Lindberg probably had out since the 1950s ,and still gets reissued from time to time. Except for the decals, the unique pieces to each kit are included in every kit .The only changes I made was to the Time Bomb; I kept a hood on it and gutted the radiator shell- I think it looks better with them .   |

Those are awesome Don ! I may just have to get the others and complete my set .  From what I've found the Devil Drag originated in 1959 as a '29 Model B Roadster .  Most parts were carried over but the body was changed for the 1962 "32 Roadster" which was later reissued as the three kits you have .  The Devil Drag , Time Bomb , Mind Blower , and Ford Fooler were all released around 1967 (?) . |

That's pretty funny ; After seeing your Devil Drag build, I said I should look for one of them to complete my set ! |

Great Don, I've done 2 or 3 Ford Foolers, basic but neat!

Nice work Don. I've only seen the box art before. So you have to get three kits to do this, all versions correct? Y'all are going to make me buy a couple.

Yes, you would have to buy three kits to build the three versions . A few years ago the kit was reissued, that time it was just listed as one kit that you could build three ways instead of them issuing three different names and box art with the same kit. They are simple builds, but fun , I worked on them while waiting for paint to dry on other builds I was working on. |
