James2 Posted August 2, 2020 Share Posted August 2, 2020 (edited) In all the years and many 32 Fords I've built, I don't believe I ever did a fender version. When I Decided to do one I also decided to use only left over parts from all the other 32's I built. This is the result! Mostly Revell parts, donated tires, Reliable Resin wheels, Alclad chrome and Model Car World paint. The chassis was tubed, rear fenders widened and the body was smoothed just like "Butter". I wanted the wheels to be black at first, but an attempt to lightly spray Alclad Chrome over the black base proved to produce a much better look. at least to me. My skill set has diminished and I haven't spend much time at the bench lately, but I'm happy with this one. I should touch and clean it up some, Thanks for looking....

Misha Posted August 2, 2020 Share Posted August 2, 2020 Smooth is right! I would question that your skill set has diminished, especially with your chassis work and assembly of left over parts. Great ? work! Congrats Misha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

espo Posted August 2, 2020 Share Posted August 2, 2020 I agree with Misha, on your "skill set". The thing I like most is the understated color and overall look of your build. Very clean and well done in every way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlackSheep214 Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 Butter.. Parkay.. Awesome job on the "32!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dennis Lacy Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 I dig the concept and the way the butter colored paint looks with the white running boards and top insert. It’s neat to see the pro-street narrowed and tubbed back half, not to mention the widened fenders to cover those big tires. Rad! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spottedlaurel Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 I really like the understated bodywork, light paint colour and dark wheels, it works well, and very nicely built too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BeakDoc Posted August 9, 2020 Share Posted August 9, 2020 Beautiful. I love the monochromatic look when it’s done well- like this. The wheel treatment is terrific. Gotta love happy accidents. If this is an example of “diminished” skills then we should all be so lucky some day. Super classy deuce! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Modlbldr Posted August 9, 2020 Share Posted August 9, 2020 I like the overall look of this. The color is unusual, yet perfect. And I like the tubbed rear and dark wheels. Beautiful job. Later- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
