Revell 1948 Ford Woody

Recommended Posts

Hello to everyone here!

Hope everyone is healthy and having a good time...

I would like to show you my first ever Woody. Thanks to the inspirtation from that Forum i´m brave enough to try it...

Modifications will be:

Lowering the Chassis, Offenhauser Valvecovers, some wiring, adding a Rollpan, removing the sidetrim, Pegasus Aluminum Rims with the Sotck Steelies (i love Steelies).

So for a custom freak like me its nearly box stock...;-)

Chassis, Wheels and Engine were painted Tamiya TS3 Dark Yellow, some Alclad Chrome and Testors Metalizer...

Body will be painted Tamiya Germangrey and of course Wood...

I hope you enjoy, comments good or bad allways welcome!

Have a good time!

Cheers!

I wanna know how you keep your workspace so tidy..... mine usually looks like a mini scrapyard.

Any reason you removed the fender contours? Just wondering, those are tell tale signs of a 46-46 Ford.

Andy i clean all up before the pics...:-)

You are absolutly right about the fender contours...i wanted a smooth look but i wouldn´t do it next time...

Kinda thought that about the fenders.

How did you drop the rear?

I bend the rear spring with low heat, cut the pins of the rearaxle on the frame. i had to file the rear axle housing in the middle to fit the floorpan...

Tried some woodpainting to the Interieur...Tamiya Wood Tan with dry brushed Dark Wood...finaly red clear to the door lines...
