Steve H Posted August 22, 2020 This is based on the Revell 32 Ford kit. It has been channeled, and lowered. I wanted a motor with “presence”, so I went with the DOHC 426 hemi and added ignition wires and fuel lines. Parts box surf board and fabricated roof rack. Paint is Dupli Colour metallic blue with flat clear, surf board is same colour with gloss clear. Also added parts box wheels and tires. Thanks for looking, comments welcome.

Claude Thibodeau Posted August 22, 2020 Hi Steve! Sweet! A motor with "presence" you say? That's the understatement of the year, but fine with me! Bravo! CT Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AmericanMuscleFan Posted August 23, 2020 Another superb build Steve! Great idea to use the matt finish on the body and gloss for the board. A Ford body with a Mopar engine... not bad for a Chevy guy... ? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Spottedlaurel Posted August 23, 2020 Very nice, they'd certainly get to the beach quick enough. The metallic paint with flat clear gives an interesting effect, I like that. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Steve H Posted August 29, 2020 Thanks for all the kind words guys. Much appreciated. This was a fun build. The metallic paint with flat clear does give a cool iridescence. Cheers, Steve Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
