TimKustom Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 Just got this off my workbench. Had a blast building it. Here's some details, but I hope the pix speak for themselves. Body/Frame/Seat from the old Monogram kit. Cowl sectioned 3", lengthened 5". Frame Z'd 4" in front 6" in the back. Engine from AMT parts pack. Suspension parts from Revell '32 Ford & Tweety Pie. Scratchbuilt Hallock style windshield and underslung radiator below supercharger. Paint is Tamiya Clear Red over Testors "Diamond Dust" and lots of Alclad. Whatcha think? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
