    I love this build! The hole 3d printing thing is sooo amazing. I wish I could do something like this but I'm completely computer stupid. Like Andy (1930forpick) said, "What about a tow truck boom in the bed? it would give you something else to print up also." That would be cool, and if you need a boom to copy & print I would send you one. It's the wrong scale but maybe you could change it to the right scale. I don't know how it all works, or if that it even possible. Let me know if you're interested and I'll send it out.  Anyway great job and I can't wait to see more. Oh, and here's a pic of the tow boom.

    That boom assembly looks like a Weaver T3. I have a lot of info on it it that be of any help with creating a printable file.

  2. Outstanding art! I love commercial vehicles from that era. Those mirrors would have been pretty much useless but are in fact cool looking. The reflections in the paint are perfect and very much like pinstripes. Thanks for sharing your talent with us.

  3. Absolutely amazing project with Superb details and show winning craftsmanship. Everything is in correct proportion and well balanced. When finished it will be one that one could at for a long time and continue to see new things. Congrats!

  4. Excellent work. Nice to see a vintage kit built with attention to details unthought of when the kit was new. From what I have read Mr.Ford used the black paint predominantly seen in that era because it dried very quickly thus speeding up production a few minutes. Another story concerning those wooden floor boards is that Henry specified a very specific type and length of boards be used for some of the components he ordered from outside suppliers that were delivered to his factories on pallets.Those pallets boards were then used for the boards. Smart man indeed.
