plumnuts Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 went at this one with fast and furious tokyo drift in mind. the movie went with a mustang. I used a 32 5 window coupe. also went for a bare steel body (no paint) look. motor is a twin turbo V6 from a 300z kit and wheels are from revell tuner kit and sleeved the back wheel for a hot rod look. speakers from the hummer kit.

vizio93 Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 Wow I've seen a 32 Ford built as a rat rod, a hot rod, a street rod, as a stock rod, and I think I even saw one built as a monster truck, but never in all my years have I seen one done as a drifter . I kinda like the way the back wheels look, cause their "deep-ish". Nice job Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plumnuts Posted January 10, 2010 Author Share Posted January 10, 2010 I'm glad you guys like the build. I wanted to do something different and it payed off. I really like this build. thanks for the feed back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mr moto Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 That is seriously COOL! It's not often that somebody thinks up a new way to do a '32. Good job! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GOTH KUSTOMS Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 Great job, now tell everyone how you got the paint effect, thats what I really like about this build, other then the fact it has kewlness factor of 10..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plumnuts Posted January 11, 2010 Author Share Posted January 11, 2010 yea mike no problem. first sprayed in gray primer,then sprayed wal-mart alluminum, then scuffed with scotch bright pad lightly.(not enough to go through the primer) then used black wash over the whole thing. I really like the way it turned out... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazyjim Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 Pretty cool idea. Sleeved the rear wheels. The wheels look like Pegasus. Does that mean you bought the extra parts to make them deeper? I've seen the parts online but never bothered with them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck Most Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 Who says everything that CAN be done to a Deuce HAS been done to a Deuce? Makes me wanna try a '49 Merc drift car... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seeker589 Posted January 12, 2010 Share Posted January 12, 2010 (edited) I Love the Build! Where did you get the pin-striping decal on the back deck? It seems to be Von Dutch's "Harvey shaken by cross-breeding" - one of his more famous single works. Some have called it his self portrait.

plumnuts Posted January 13, 2010 Author Share Posted January 13, 2010 CRAZY JIM, I would have a hard time building a kit with out the pegasus wheel sleevs. this set looks like the pegasus set but the centers are from the revell eclips tuner kit. sanded off the ridge on the wheel and slid right in. SEEKER 589, the decal on the back came on the decal sheet in the kit. comes in black and white. set the car in the glass case at the local hobby shop today, we will see what happens....
