Amt 1940 Ford Coupe

Here's a little something I dug out of my stash. Painted last summer with Tamiya Dark Blue Metallic. Cleaned up the floor pans since it had the exhaust molded to it. Interior will be a cream color to match the Revell 1932 Ford wheels with caps and rings. I cut both the interior tub and bench seat and inserted plastic to replicate tuc n roll.

    That looks nice, . . . . . REAL nice!!  The color has a kinda purple

tint in it, doesn't it!?!   I love '40 Fords!!!  The interior is cut out with

inserts glued into place?  It looks great!!

Thanks guys for the replies.

I plan on using the flathead with triple dueces that the kit comes with for the engine.

As far as the tuc n roll inserts, I don't recall which Evergreen StripStyrene it was but it was a large sheet of Metal Siding that I found that looked like it might work. Cut out the stock upholestry and glued in pieces on the trim panels and seat inserts. Not happy with paint coverage in the interior, this kit started as being molded in orange not covering well, even after priming and painting silver.

This Dark Blue Metallic does have a purple look to in it the light.
