Have had this one sitting almost done for a while now, decided to get her finished up today. Inspired by a build in a mag from late 09, one of the reasons I picked back up modeling after a long hiatus.

-Revell 32
-Caddy motor out of the revell 49 merc
-rear axle from revell 40 ford
-front tires/wheels from lindberg 53 ford / rear tires from AMT riviera with the 53 whitewall inserts and wheels.
-duplicolor automotive spray for paint.

Very nice and clean. I like it. If it was mine, though, I'd add a chrome spreader bar in front to finish off the frame.

Wow that's a beauty! It's got the right look and I love the Merc hubcaps. Nothing like a 5-window '32, I love it!!!! :wub:

I remember seeing this as a project some time ago. It has been worth the wait. Very cool hot rod!

Love the whole selection of parts and the shade of blue you chose is awesome!
