1948 ford woody station

Recommended Posts

this revell 48 woody started out as half a glue bomb .. most parts and body where badly painted .. luckely not put together .. i revamped it into a patina resto mod style ..

engine is a 5.0 ho ford v8 .. customized some stuff and build a battery , master brake cilinder etc ..

chassis is heavely modified with airbags , brake lines , custom made exhaust ..

interiour is rather stock and not weathered ...

The diorama you have pictured is awesome and the Woody looks right at home there too.

thnx all ! :) !

 

Absolutely amazing work-wow-could you tell me what you used for brake line ?

thnx and sure its a sort of spring stuff , very small diameter but very flexible , looks ribbed because its wound like a spring (no tension) so it looks like braided line . for the fuel line i used a guitar snare , also ribbed
