40 Ford Altered

[noname]

Here is a curbside I made out of Amt's 40 Ford. It represents a mid 50's Altered, made on the cheap at an auto salvage yard. Hope you like.

Bungie cords, I never thought of using them, now that I think of it, I seem them quite often holding closed Mid 90's Dodge truck hoods, Thanks for the Idea, also did you use the salt method on this car?

This is good. Looks like it raced on the fifties and now sixty years later someone found it in barn. Rust looks very real and those writings are good ones too.

Thanks alot guys. Glad it looks the part. I've seen quite a few old black and white period photos of cars like this.

Yes I did use the salt technique. Twice actually. Once for the rust and once for the different shade of blue. Terribly easy to do.

That's cool. Looks very authentic! I like your other cars that you posted too, especially the altered T sedan.

You know how to capture the look of the real "every day" drag cars of the old days very accurately! -Larman
