Rocking Rodney Rat

Nice, nice nice, I like that it has the radiator cap on it (inside joke)....root beer color is sweet, I may try that color one day. The white suspension components was an inspired choice.-RRR

Nicely done, clean straight forward build of an iconic hot rod style.... -RRR

yes. -RRR

Nice progress there, ADL... I really like the head bolts...keeping it real... -RRR

I'm always in for a '32 Ford thread!!! This fordor was mastered by our very own Dennis Lacy and cast by Ed BLAH_BLAH_BLAH_BLAH at Drag City Casting. -RRR

Nice work on a body that few would dare mess with! Winters QC and a flathead in a land speed car, what's not to dig? I'm on board for this build! -RRR

The boat is looking good, there KK!! I love the way those carbs look sticking through the deck! -RRR

Some spiffy surgery going on here.... -RRR

Nice one, Alan!!! -RRR

I gotta finish the '33 Willys delivery..... -RRR

Pretty much every kit I buy is a "box of parts"... -RRR

For the fun of it! ? -RRR

The Monogram 1930 coupe fenders can be made to fit the Revell '30 coupe with a bit of work.... -RRR

Goo-Gone will remove the gummy residue. Goo gone is oily, so make sure you clean the area well with water and liquid dish soap, rinsing thoroughly and drying before painting.... -RRR

Awesome! Keep it up! -RRR

Ignore it? -RRR

Don't tell anyone but I have three of the original issue Revell '30 coupes factory sealed on the shelf....sshhhhh!!!! -RRR

Where you at with this rig, KK????? You don't have an immediate deadline anymore.... ;-( -RRR

The engine in this kit is the 3x2 carbureted (sp?) or blown SBC that was in the '30/'31 coupe version originally. This kit also has the chrome wheels and knock-off spinners from the coupe kit (as well as the steel wheels, trim rings, dog dish caps that were in the original roadster kit). -RRR

I know most of you aren't into hot rods, but when Revell issued their new tool Model A series it was the best thing for us rod builders since the '32 series was introduced in 1996. When the tooling was mishandled (not sure we'll ever know the full story), it was devastating (as devastating as something such as that can be in the grand scheme of life and death). Today, I received the new new tool '29 roadsters in the post. I bought four and gave one to KK... -RRR New decals, too!!!

"I'd buy that for a dollar!!!" -RRR

Yes.... -RRR

I was just thinking the same thing!!! Stay safe out there everyone....more time to sit at the bench!!!!! -RRR

Nice build-up of the olde Mako Shark (or what was left of it). I have a bunch of Mako parts around here somewhere...this would be a kit I'd like to see re-issued in it's original glory (most likely not possible now...).... -RRR

I've always considered this hobby relatively inexpensive. Perspective, I guess.... -RRR
