New Build 1957 Ford Del Rio Station Wagon Finished !
Metalmad replied to Metalmad's topic in WIP: Model Cars
Was able to get in a little bench time in this evening to scratch build the front engine plate mounts which I installed to the frame but they do not look to pretty at the moment so I will clean them up after the glue has cured. -

New Build 1957 Ford Del Rio Station Wagon Finished !
Metalmad replied to Metalmad's topic in WIP: Model Cars
Small update : I have added hold down straps to the fuel cell and it's in primer and I will add the fuel fittings and lines later since I haven't mapped out where I want to run them yet. I'm contaplating on doing a rack and pinion steering system which I have a rack and pinion in my parts box and front lower control arms also to accommodate the rack and pinion steering which I will attempt to modify for better fitment.. -

Was able to get a little bench time in today so I started to modify the interior since I have tubbed the chassie and I also had to make some modifications to the interior which surprisingly went pretty good so for. I'm not sure as of yet if I will keep the front bench seat or use bucket seats with a center console but I'm swaying towards the bench seat. -

A little update on the Del Rio Wagon. I have started some of the scratch building for this build so first is to scratch build the fuel cell which is basically done so next I will shoot some primer on her to make sure it is nice and smooth then figure out where I will drill holes to run the fuel lines. -

Was able to get in a little bench time this evening which I will be removing the engine mounts so that I will have room for the headers for the 429 engine that will be installed on this build. So I have started scratch building the engine plates which as you can see they still need a little finish work to have them done plus I have started to box the frame rails and I will also be giving it a go with parts from Scott at Futurattraction which is a rear 4 link set up and a Ford nine inch with a disc brakes. -
