Somehow this solution is so what I expected from you, Brother! -KK

This is an amazing project, Brother! -KK

Refrigerator White over Lipstick Red what better combination for a Sunday Stripper!?. Dressed to the 9's and turning in the low one hundreds in under thirteen seconds in the quarter mile! You build paints that visual with smokin' rear tires & one front tire lifting off the tarmac at the green light launch. Killer from every angle, Brother! -KK

Norm Verber of Replicas and Miniatures of Maryland (Picture Compliments of John Hendley, ACME Member in attendance 10-25-25) Norm & I go way back & he has allowed me to master several of his products over the years! -KK

The detail is incredible, Brother! Melding aspects of rod & kustom together on this build seems only natural in the new age of street rodding! I'm so impressed with this build! -KK

Thank you, Mate! If you get the chance, check out the build thread @:

Sorry to say I will not be attending this year! This will be only the 2nd time in the 29–30-year history of the show that I have to miss the event! Y'all have a great time, and I'll be looking forward to seeing everyone next year! -KK

You ought to contact Jay and let him know about your build! -KK

OMG! The eyeball-engineering involved in this build is spectacular, Brother! Have you come up with any paint choices, yet? -KK

So looking forward to mocking this up with the other sets of wheels & tires! -KK

'34 5W up on all 4s Now we're getting somewhere... Weight Transfer or Old Skool Engine Setback - thanks to the Hemi Motor Mounts found in the Revell '41 Willys Chassis... -KK

Very creative & well executed, Brother! -KK

Not just KOOL, but almost too kool for words, Brother! -KK

Correct! Fixed it, above! Thanks, Brother! -KK

K&R Kustoms+Rods '34 5ive Window Chopped Coupe Chassis modifications to accommodate the use of the Revell 1932 Ford Dropped Front Axle requires the grafting of the Deuce front rails, frame horns & front axle crossmember: Magnets have already been attached to the kingpins... Center front spring mounting tab had to be trimmed down... The Deuce radiator slots have been filled in... Tracing the position of the location of the Deuce rails & crossmember relative to the Willys forward frame marking the material to be removed from the Deuce front clip... Here the side view denotes the outline of the material to be removed from the Deuce rails... 1st mockup after the Deuce rails have been trimmed... Clamp the parts together prior to cementing the pieces together... There! Things ought to stay in place while the bond cures... This is how it appeared before final fit... With the smallest set of front tires gives a view of about how low the frontend will ride. -KK

K&R Kustoms+Rods '34 5ive Window Chopped Coupe Before & After Interior Parts: Parts off the tree have been trimmed down to fit inside of the AMT 1934 Ford 5ive Window Coupe body/// The floorboard sustained the greatest degree of modification cuts! The dash & door panels received minor trimming while the back panel had to be reshaped to allow for the raised driveshaft tunnel & narrowed floor pan! -KK

I actually have one of these in my stash: and the full fender'd plan for this will shake your boots! -KK

The Revell '41 Willys' interior fits well inside the '34 5W... Interior had to be trimmed here & there to conform to the '34's inner-space:

With or Without Fenders?

Thanks for your contribution, Brother! -KK

Absolutely spot on, Brother! -KK

Can we just go back to the days of ANALOG? -KK
