Borgis Posted December 28, 2010 Share Posted December 28, 2010 That's so cool. Very nicely "weathered" too. The aged effect is really well done. I'm working on a -36 Ford Coupe which is getting a similar body treatment. Thanks for showing yours! /Borgis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanedge Posted December 28, 2010 Share Posted December 28, 2010 Very cool custom, great job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
W-409 Posted December 28, 2010 Share Posted December 28, 2010 (edited) That is very cool looking Plymouth so far! I like that idea a lot, it's a bit different than all other '41 Plymouths! I like that weathering too, it looks very good and real. Those steelies are looking very good too on this and that decal (?) on the driver's door. Looks good, can't wait to see more of this build...

Thor Posted January 6, 2011 Author Share Posted January 6, 2011 hi its good to be back online again. here is a litle update. got the interior mostly done. Desided to use another engine than the stock six. so i ended up with a 327 sbc with tunnelram intake. The last picture is the car in final "ride height" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
parki Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 Looking very cool . Neet idea Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisR Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 This is going to be a very nice model. I did one in 1993 but it is no way as cool as yours. I started with a badly warped body, bed from plastic sheet, bed cover and fenders from the Monogram '40 Ford and Fujumi wheels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
