1932 Ford Sedan kitbash

    This was a combination of the Revell 1929 model A roadster and 1932 sedan. Where the engine originated from remains a mystery but it's a large block so I had to relocate the engine mounts on the frame which, in turn, made it necessary to move the front axle forward. The front axle was also lowered but in spite of several clearance checks I didn't realize that I'd overdone it until final assembly and it was too late to correct. The sedan body was also lowered which made a lot of alterations to the rear interior and rear suspension necessary.

     This was the most challenging modification to a kit that I have attempted and a lot of my solutions wouldn't pass close inspection but the main thing is I enjoyed it and am pleased with how it turned out. It certainly wouldn't pass muster in the real world but in my dream world, I'm cruisin' in style!
