This is yet another old build of mine, so I can't remember all the stuff I did to it. I changed the original grille with some grid styrene I had. I think the rear view mirrors are from an '87 Thunderbird. I believe the paint is Model Master Chrome Yellow. Installed seat belts and a tach and swapped in a parts box steering wheel. The small block is from the AMT '34 Ford sedan and has been detailed. I got lucky with the BMF and decals..( usually my downfall). Hope these old builds aren't too boring for you guys.

The grille is just a "grid" from the parts box, cut to fit the opening. The engine was detailed to the best of my ability back when. As I mentioned, this model was built a long time ago, and I'm unable to remember some of the modifications. Those stylish wheels (ha ha) came from the Revell '54 Chevy S.D. , IIRC.
