Foxer Posted September 14, 2019 Share Posted September 14, 2019 The body mods are so well done this looks like it could have been stock! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rickcaps55 Posted September 14, 2019 Share Posted September 14, 2019 Awesome build !!! Dam I love the color it looks like it just came out of the pages of a 60's Hot Rod magazine very very nice.!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alan barton Posted September 14, 2019 Share Posted September 14, 2019 Wow, that is laser sharp! I really like the crispness of the paint separation at the firewall - that must have been quite a trick. This is one very swoopy rod, era perfect and yet with a body style that wouldn't have been thought of yet. Love it! Cheers Alan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'70 Grande Posted September 14, 2019 Share Posted September 14, 2019 Wow! This is one of the finest early-Ford customs that I have ever seen. The multiple alterations that you did to that body make it sing... awesome build! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Modelbuilder Mark Posted September 14, 2019 Share Posted September 14, 2019 That is a great looking ride! Nice job on the section, it looks really slick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TooOld Posted September 14, 2019 Share Posted September 14, 2019 Very few people attempt sectioning a body these days but the results are more than worth the effort as you've proven with this beauty ! Excellent work ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nacho Z Posted September 14, 2019 Share Posted September 14, 2019 I’ll admit that I don’t know a lot about this style of build but I do know a beautiful model when I see one and I’m looking at one right here. Very nice! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter Lombardo Posted September 14, 2019 Share Posted September 14, 2019 well done all around, body mod's, paint and finish, all excellent..... If I had to question any part of the build, I am not sure I like the exhaust outlet .... but that sure is a minor point. The under hood detail is so clean and well done and the wheels set it off nicely. Very cool period custom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gman Posted September 14, 2019 Share Posted September 14, 2019 Home run! This build ticks a lot of boxes for me- a nice period build using era correct parts, great color combo, well finished, with a great overall look. Nicely done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fivesuns Posted September 14, 2019 Share Posted September 14, 2019 Beautiful. I love the wheel treatment and the rubber around the glass looks so real. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
espo Posted September 14, 2019 Share Posted September 14, 2019 I like the '50's style custom. The body work is seamless and all of the body lines flow smoothly. Great paint work. I also like how you resisted going wild with the channel and chop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Claude Thibodeau Posted September 14, 2019 Share Posted September 14, 2019 Hi! Great built, tremendous paint finish. This is what we would call "dripping wet" gloss. Bravo! CT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Excellent work ! Thanx! This section was easy. Virtually no body work involved. The interior was kind of a pain. But, not bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
