Gumball Posted October 18, 2018 Share Posted October 18, 2018 (edited) This is my dads kit that he has neglected for a while, now me and him are going to finish it. Any bad color choices you can blame on him. Edited October 23, 2018 by Gumball Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gumball Posted October 22, 2018 Author Share Posted October 22, 2018 So the box says 1/8 scale... But here's the body up next to a 1/8 scale 32 ford body. so I think the box is lying to me and its really a 1/12 scale rather than a 1/8 scale.

Ace-Garageguy Posted October 22, 2018 Share Posted October 22, 2018 (edited) A T is a MUCH smaller car than a '32 Ford. I think you'll find it is actually 1/8 scale. What kit is it? I can tell you for certain... Edited October 22, 2018 by Ace-Garageguy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What kit is it? I can tell you for certain... Yes its a revell ford t big tub. I always assumed a model t was the same if not close to the same scale as a model a. I have never actually gotten the chance to compare the two cars in person, so its neat actually learning the T is smaller then the A.

Ace-Garageguy Posted October 23, 2018 Share Posted October 23, 2018 (edited) Actually, an A is between the size of a T and a '32; a '32 ("deuce") isn't an A...it's bigger. And an A is bigger than a T. So...a '32 deuce is bigger than a model A, and a model A (1928-1931) is bigger than a model T (through 1927)...and they only made the "deuce" body design for one year...'32...but it's sometimes called a model B through '34 IF it has the 4-cylinder engine from the A (even though the '33-'34 cars are entirely different otherwise from a '32). Confused yet? The V8 '32 deuce is called a model 18, but in '33-'34 it's called a model 40. I have a couple of the Big Tub kits, and they're definitely 1/8. Cool project you have there.

martin9428 Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 I like this scale as my old eyes can see it and the details aren't so fine that I can't detail. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gumball Posted March 5, 2019 Author Share Posted March 5, 2019 Been a bit since I worked on this. I will hopefully get back to it soon, though I’m currently working on some music for the workshop so I may not get to it any time soon.
