Well I finally got around to finishing this one. It's a Revell '40 Ford coupe body mounted on a lengthened Revell '41 Willys Street Rod chassis. I also replaced the blower with the intake system from the new Revell 5wd '32 Ford coupe, (thanks to a parts contribution from my friend, Bernard). Here's the link to the build: On the Workbench The major body modifications are the chopped top, the slanted "B" pillars, the pie-cut hood, the filled and thickened running boards and the molded in rear fenders. Here's the 392 HEMI from the Revell '41 Willys with the intake manifold and carbs from the Revell '32 5wd coupe. The ACCELL coil and the wired distributor are from SMBC, the ballast resistor is made from styrene and aluminum. The exhaust piping is solder with the mufflers from the '41 Willys. Well...I'm off to my next build... Later,

Here's the fully fendered '32 Ford Roadster that I finished a couple of weeks ago. So this is the contemporary Old School full fendered Roadster with the Flattie, Torq Thrusts and a stock full hood finished in glossy Black and red with the usual PE parts from the MCG kit that I built for a friend of mine. I was going to mail it to him for Christmas, but it's so delicate that I think I'll wait until he comes to visit in February to give it to him. Regards,

Here are a few pics of my friend Jerry Cardinal's '32 Ford with an all brass chassis. The steering wheel is an old Liberty dime with the center sections cut out. Here's a shot of the brass radiator and headlights. The entire chassis was fabricated in brass, using the plastic pieces from the Revell '32 Ford kit as templates. Later,

Curt, my old friend, that is one fine collection of models!! Let's see...you built 33, I built 4...hmmm...how much are you paying those elves?! I can hardly wait to see them all lined up at the NNL West. We'll reserve a table just for you!! Later,

Great stuff, Bernard!! My favorites are the '29 Highboy and the '39 Roadster!! (I've always been a huge Model A fan)... I can hardly wait to see what you come up with next year!! Later,

Bill, I would help but my computer at home died a tragic death earlier this week. They said that it would be 4-6 weeks before it is repaired. If you're not in a hurry, I can help you when I get my PC back... Later,

That's a very nice collection!! While its hard for me to pick a favorite, its interesting to see your range of interest!! Thanks for sharing,

Very nice work, Randy!! The Camaro Nomad wagon is too cool!! Thanks for sharing,

Another really nice collection of model cars!! Thanks for sharing,

They all look outstanding, Lyle, but I think that my favorite is the Chevy panel truck!! Thanks for sharing!!

Marcos, I really like all four of them, but I've got to agree with Dave that my favorite is the '60 Ford. The color is awesome!! If I finish the '40 Ford by the end of this month, I'll also have four builds for the year... Thanks for sharing!!
