mrmike Posted April 14, 2019 Posted April 14, 2019 I built this model 3-4 years ago from the Revell '32 Ford 3-Window Street Rod kit. It is painted with Testors Flaming Orange Lacquer with a light tan interior, wired 302 Ford small block with an automatic transmission, taillights from my parts box, headlights from the Revell '30 Ford Street Rod, and the wheels and tires from the '32 Ford Highboy Roadster. I had originally used the American Racing wheels and tires on this car, but I needed the fronts for my Bullitt '68 Mustang GT. I had the Halibrand style wheels and tri-bar knockoffs lying on the bench and used them for this kit. I fixed up and polished the model to what is presented here.
Koellefornia Kid Posted April 15, 2019 Posted April 15, 2019 Very nice coupe! I like your wheel choice!
espo Posted April 15, 2019 Posted April 15, 2019 I think I remember seeing your original post of this build. Either set of wheels look great on it.
Phildaupho Posted April 15, 2019 Posted April 15, 2019 Great looking Deuce 3-W. I have one myself on the workbench. Always a nice kit to work with.
mrmike Posted April 15, 2019 Author Posted April 15, 2019 Thanks guys! The Halibrand style of wheel gives the '32 a different appearance.
stavanzer Posted April 16, 2019 Posted April 16, 2019 Laser Sharp '32, Mike. I prefer the Hallibrands to the 5-spokes in the other Revell kits
mrmike Posted April 17, 2019 Author Posted April 17, 2019 Thank you Alan! I changed the look of this '32 by going to the Hallibrands. Those wheels give it a more of a dragster look instead of a cruiser.
mrmike Posted April 17, 2019 Author Posted April 17, 2019 Thank you Jeremy! The more I keep this car sitting on the bench, the more little details I keep adding to it. Somebody stop me!!!
