Well I am only just getting back into the hobby and have been mostly working out of my stash from the 90's. I have bought one kit that has impressed me, Revells 32 Ford 5 window Cpe Kit. Lots of build options, great instructions and lots of extra parts for future projects. There may be others but for now this is my go to kit for 32's. I have bought 2 so far I will most likely be buying more.

something is only worth what someone is willing to pay

The buyer is in for a surprise when he finds out it's not a real car

I am going to use t in the AG coupe and use the extra unchromed blower inn the Switchers kit

I kinda thought it was a SBC but being a Ford guy I wasn't sure. Thanks for the info.

What engine comes in the American Graffiti 32 Coupe (also in the Switchers 32 Sedan Phaeton) Kit? Thanks

Very nice I would like to build a non Cyclone version having owned 2 1:1 of a 67 Caliente . Would need a stock hood

Since I'm old I seem to have a lot of pill bottles. I use the larger ones for unbuilt engines and engine parts. And the smaller ones for smaller stuff.

The extra radius rods are in the Revell (sorry) 32 5 window kit

The AMT 32 2n1 kit has two sets of radius rods. One set for the High Boy and a shorter set for the Coupe. I have two kits and will be building on as a High Boy and one as a Coupe, so I have a extra set of each. Not sure yet about the steering linkage. correction: should be Revell

From all the extra parts in the Switchers, Milner Coupe and the AMT (actually Revell oops)32 5 window 2 in 1, I have enough parts to build another 32 only missing the frame.

Thanks for the info Funny thing is the kit sitting next to this one is the same Switcher kit you have. I will check it out Thanks Again Jon

I picked up a AMT American Graffiti 32 Ford Kit at a swap meet that I thought was sealed but as it turned out it was Resealed by the seller. It looks like it is all there but it has a lot of parts that don't go with the Milner Coupe. Such as a unchromed tree with a blower carb setup and something that looks like a weird velocity stack. The chrome tree also has this weird part but it's chromed. There are 7 wheels on the tree 4 that go on the Milner coupe 1 rear wire spoked, 1 front wire spoked and 1 rear deep mag. Is there a way to find out what other kits use these parts ? I wouldn't mind finding another rear deep mag to go with the one I have. Thanks

Looks great Where does one find a 65 Barracuda kit/body ? A local builder is looking for one to build a model of his 1:1 car Thanks Someday I will start my 66 Barracuda build for my 1:1 car

for $10 it's worth a try. Might work well for base coats and primer

Will make a good Courier for my delivery collection

something that looks like this ?

Just tried embossing powder worked great, little white glue brushed on the floor sprayed it with color matching paint and it looks good. Thanks to the people that left the tips on this site

Yes . Read something about hitting a Dear

"drop Top" ?

No , a friend will come and visit you in jail. A good friend will be there beside you.

And where would a person go to buy one ?

Picked this one up Saturday at the Swap meet

I am planning a Milner Coupe style project and trying to pick a color. I am considering maybe a Metallic of flake color. After thinking about it and looking at some of the 1:1 cars it appears that most 32's in the fender less race style have solid colors and the full fendered show car styles have the Flakes and metallic paint. Is this the general feeling on paint schemes ? Would this be out of place on a fender less High Boy ? (this is just a practice body I use for paint tests)

I download those old Youtubes and watch them later. Save them for camping trips when I have no internet
