Sounds like a plan, Charles! I thought the motor came out quite well. Here is the engine/chassis test fitted to the body. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will try that when I get some other stuff done, but I won't be changing the filter covers, I like that finned look. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Lange Posted January 23, 2023 Author Share Posted January 23, 2023 Moving along, slowly but surely! Almost ready for paint. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
customline Posted January 24, 2023 Share Posted January 24, 2023 I LOVE IT ! It is so off the wall and weird that it's beautiful 😍! I was so inspired by this build that, at one point, I was on the edge of grabbing one of these body's from JF. Long story short I ended up with the '53 Ford Country Squire body ( I've got 2 donors sitting on the shelf). Let's get this puppy painted! Very cool, Joe 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimmy Flintstone makes some nice, (and a little strange), stuff. And his casting quality is great. Don't forget to post some WIP pics when you start the '53 Ford. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe Lange Posted March 8, 2023 Author Share Posted March 8, 2023 After a few stops and delays the little beast is finished! Although there were a few posts and articles on the internet regarding '51 Nash Rambler Station Wagons, there was next to nothing on their Sedan Delivery. Only found one or two black and white advertising/brochure pictures. Tried to keep it as 'stock' as possible except under the hood. I think the 225 Dodge 'slant six' looks very comfortable in there! Was tempted to put 'Speedy Delivery!' on the front fenders but...... The paint is 'Behr Premium' Gloss, 'Roasted Corn'. Went on smooth and polished up very nicely once it dried. The drying time is just as long as Rust-oleum spray. I let it dry for 2 full weeks before polishing. Bumper chrome is 'Spaz Stix' spray, and trim is BMF. Thanks for looking and hope you enjoy it! 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
customline Posted March 8, 2023 Share Posted March 8, 2023 (edited) JOE! It's PERFECT!! I absolutely LOVE IT!! The color, the decals, the concept - you nailed it! The engine bay detailing looks like 1:1 ! It was worth the wait. I'm glad I checked in early today and became the first to congratulate you on this extremely interesting build. 🤩 👍 Edited March 8, 2023 by customline Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
