Sam I Am Posted October 18, 2021 Share Posted October 18, 2021 This is what many would call a true survivor. With the two piece tires, I believe it is an original issue. It is also a community build. Just as it takes a village to raise a child, it took a forum to build a car. I traded for it from Modlbldr. It was in pieces...and missing pieces. Thanks to him, thatz4u TruckerAl, and ewetwo for donating the needed parts. The ob layed down a gold basecoat followed by transparent red to create a true candy apple red. All I did was lightly polish it after thoroughly cleaning all the parts. I added wash to the grill, the engine came from the parts box.

Modlbldr Posted October 18, 2021 Share Posted October 18, 2021 Sam, That turned out great! It gives me hope for the blue 29 (if I remember it correctly) I have from the same OB. Now if I can just find all of the parts. Like I said, makes me regret trading it to you!! Lol. Great job. Later- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam I Am Posted October 18, 2021 Author Share Posted October 18, 2021 I still have the blue '32 as well. I am sure it will need a few parts also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zippi Posted October 18, 2021 Share Posted October 18, 2021 Nicely done. That candy apple red pops against the black. Love the fat fender cars from the 30's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thatz4u Posted October 18, 2021 Share Posted October 18, 2021 you put my parts to very good use, well done.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
espo Posted October 18, 2021 Share Posted October 18, 2021 I like the smooth look of the way youi did the body and paint. I always fought the fit with the grill/hood/and firewall on this kit so the way you did the grill and hood combined looks like a good way around that. Great looking stance and the chrome wheels look good here. The paint looks great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
