ridinframe Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 Started life as a monogram 1932 ford street rod kit. Frame was Zed in the front, in the rear it was cut and scratch build with a higher kick up, all painted mystic emerald green. It has a 1957 rear axle from the revell black widow kit, scratch built 4 link and chrome drive shaft. Engine is from the revell 1959 Cadillac kit painted silver with a candy green and detailed with wires. Body is a 1930 ford chopped 5 window from jimmy flintstone painted mystic emerald green. Interior is the stock interior for the monogram 32 ford painted white with black flocking on the carpet, scratch built seat belts and the dash from the 1957 black widow kit, cut down to fit and painted to match the body and frame with hand pin striping. The grill/radiator is from a 1930 ford kit painted and hand pin striped as was the rest of the car. I've been working on this car for 2 years on and off. I hope you all enjoy sour apple.

rmvw guy Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 You captured the look of the late '50s early '60s for me and I love everything about it. Lot's of ideas from this one. I love the pin-striping and the way you carried it out underneath. Nice job throughout! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gonzo64nova Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 Thats the way a 32 should look. The JF body looks real good ,I think Ill stop chopping my 32s and just buy that body it would save me alot of work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
