Chopped 1939 Ford Sedan

This has been an on/off project for almost 18 months, mainly due to bodywork and paint issues, it fought me all the way.

It's the AMT 1939/40 sedan with a mild chop that was covered in a 'workbench' thread. The old worn out sidetrim was replaced with new styrene rod.

The chassis was adapted from the R-M 1937 Ford sedan which had the wheelbase shortened and was narrowed at the rear to accommodate the wheels/tyres from the recent Revell 1936 Ford Convertible/coupe kit. Brake discs are by Pegasus.

Paint is Tamiya, Metallic Purple with Translucent Purple clear to darken it and add depth. Thanks for looking!
