Topics I've Started

32 Ford Roadster

18 October 2012 - 06:36 AM

Here is my attempt at a traditional style 32 Ford.

I started with the kit chassis and modified it to allow for the 40 Ford X bracing. I then added rear spring support from the 29 Ford. I cut off the kit front horns and made my own. I also made the motor mounts from sheet plastic.

On to the body I cut the trunk open and I'm going to use the louvered trunk from the newer 5 window kit. I added the firewall from the AMT conv. vicky kit to somewhat represent a stockish firewall.

Here is where I'm at with motor right now. I've machined a few parts for the motor.

Here is a quick mock up of the car.

Thanks for looking.

41 Willy's A Long Stalled project

22 June 2012 - 10:44 AM

I'm getting back to this 41 Willys that I started almost 10 years ago. My plan is to have it ready for the Toledo NNL show this year.

I opened the doors to begin with. I used the kits engine and tranny and began to modify from there. Now this car has been sitting in the box for about 8 years. I pulled it out the other night and started to take pictures of where I was at. I have machined a lot of pieces for this car. I still have a lot more to machine. By the way I've searched and can't find how to post multiple photobucket pictures on one post. Any help would be appriecated.

Quick Build 34 Ford

22 June 2012 - 10:23 AM

Hello everyone my name is Ryan King and I've been out of the hobby for about 8 years. Now that the kids are getting older and we've got a routine down, I've decided that I want to get back into the hobby. I built models from a teenager up till my mid-late 20's. So I wanted to build something quick to brush up on my skills. It has been a while since I have airbrushed and built a model. I'm doing a quick build on the Revell snap type 34 Ford.

Paint is Black Gold True Blue Pearl but I haven't added the clear to yet. Here is a quick mock up of the 34 Ford
