Excellent work Matt! Really nice diorama too.??

Beautiful work Matt!??

Thanks greatly for the appreciation Folks!? I did a lot of things for the first time on this one and learned a lot too. Next one has to be fenderless…maybe.?

All very nice builds!??

That is one slick looking Deuce there Claude!?

Beautiful looking Dart! I like the color, and the vinyl roof turned out perfect.?

Great looking pair!??

Accel coils are yellow with a tan cap, and the company was founded in 1983 according to Google.

Great looking T-Bucket Scott! The Oldsmobile engine and the track nose really set it apart.??

Sweet looking Deuce Phil!? I really like all the blacked out accessories. Very cool indeed.?

Nice clean build Johnny! The color looks good on it too.??

Beautiful looking Chevelle there Carl !?

The camera sure doesn’t do this paint job any justice.? Although I didn’t polish the Mr. hobby clear, it does look decently smooth to the naked eye, and doesn’t really have that pebbled look.? And a couple of gratuitous shots of my other 232’s.

Thank You all Fellas.? Keith, the wheels are from Scenes Unlimited. Unfortunately, I don’t think they are in business anymore.?

Super nice clean build! ??

I’m calling this one done. Thanks All for the support and encouragement.? Pics under glass here: https://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/topic/193481-boss-‘32-deuce/

This is the Revell kit. Chopped, channeled, tubbed, motor swap, and a few other changes.? The engine is from a Polar Lights Torino. Rear tires are from the AMT Chevelle. Scratch built differential, mirrors, headlight mounts and injection system. Paint is Tamiya Light Gunmetal. Thanks for looking.?

Beautiful work as always Steve!? Your full detail builds and your attention to detail always impresses me.?

I screwed up in my assembly order.? There is no way the body shell was going to sit down easily on the fenders without being firmly held in place. So I had to disassemble it enough to get two of the screws back in place.? It all went pretty well, and I was able to break the CA joints without damage to anything but the paint...and the driveshaft.? Then I used copious amounts of epoxy to hold the front of the cab down.? I pity anyone who tries to rebuild one of my models.? But I got it back together, and now it’s just a matter of adding the door handles and a few details. Thanks for looking.?

Thanks Bob!?

Today the wife and I went to the driving range and she wound up buying a left handed putter.

Dennis, do you have any of those Infini sanding sponge sticks from Hobby Sense? They curve beautifully for areas like that.?

Expanding your modeling skills is a worthwhile endeavour.

Box stock model builds are quite rare.

Finally got the suspension all installed. Once I get the glass in the cab, the body can go on permanent.?
