Greg Myers Posted December 26, 2014 Share Posted December 26, 2014 What kits are available for your quest ? I can think of a few, AMT's 1927 Model T and '32 Phaeton, Monogram's 1930 Model A and Revell's T Tourning. Sure, you can go your own way and chop the top off a sedan, but these are the kits available. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bob terry Posted December 26, 2014 Share Posted December 26, 2014 I think the history on the one in question is a pete and jake build? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Draggon Posted December 26, 2014 Share Posted December 26, 2014 (edited) The story on that 32 was that it was done as an anti-spit and polish rod before the days of billet-proof and rat rods. It was painted with brushes and a bucket of red paint at one of the street rod events by the owner and friends. Later on those magazine pages were applied in a sort of decoupage method. What escapes me is who did it.... Bobby may be right, Pete of Pete and Jakes? It was like, 30 years ago I think.

bob terry Posted December 26, 2014 Share Posted December 26, 2014 I believe Draggon is spot on. I think it was covered in Hot Rod mag at the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BTW, it's not a '32, but a '29 Model A Phaeton body on '32 Ford rails. Art Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

keyser Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 My favorite side box art ever. Built Kiln Red 32 with Duvall, this stance, and dropped bar. Awesome, still looks contemporary for most part Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
