  1. I’ve had this survivor amt 29 ford roadster for a couple of years, it keeps popping up while I’m searching for parts, someday I’ll have to find the motivation to put it together.
  2. Down to the final details! Looks great
  3. I’ll concur with your edit!
  4. Well that’s a heck of a detail!
  5. Thank you, it’s hopefully gonna wrap up soon. Weather has been to nice to stay at the bench.
  6. Looks great, keep going
  7. During the summer anywhere from 15 minutes to an hour as the mood strikes, during the cold of the winter I can spend anywhere from an hour to three more times per week, it’s a great way to spend an evening while watching everything get covered in snow outside.
  8. Seeing yours completed has given me a nudge to get back at mine! Very clean work sir!
  9. Today was a good day, dropped the sedan off at the muffler shop to get the scavenger pipes installed. New guy was in, not great with a bender but has some great cut and weld skills. Just about sone with all the chassis work so it’s time for a cooling system. Interior is complete with a wheel from the Revell Custom merc. edit: could not resist mocking it up again
  10. Only the finest seat will do for the king of hotrods, forget the rich Corinthian leather, that’s gotta be the softest velour!
  11. Looks great from here!
  12. That’s a nice clean start!
  13. Well this update is not about me or my build, I mentioned that my son was here visiting and that he took an interest, so here is his completed ford small block in Tahiti blue. he is pretty happy with it and has some some great skills that he can take away.
  14. Just absolutely love this build, it’s a kit I’ve wanted for a long time.
  15. Well productivity was high this morning. Ignition wires plumbed, interior set up almost complete, may need to add some risers for the front seats but maybe not. Carbs and their frogmouth air cleaners are ready to mount. Last details to source and decide on are taillights and headlights, and find where I stashed that miniscule bag of door handles??‍♂️. thanks for looking. Bil
  16. Tidy work as always KK, loving the coach built look of the whole affair.
  17. I have a similar box, stuffed with “maybe” bits consisting of parts harvested from glue bombs and partial vintage kits I’ve accumulated.
  18. Tidy work there Bill! I really like the narrowed rear seat, perfect place for the beverage cooler whilst attending the weekly summer hotrod meets.
  19. Finally getting to the interior, I’ve kinda had it planned out but hadn’t had any time to really get much done on it. I’m using the door cards from the Amt phantom Vickie, they need some trimming to fit the wheel arches. For the floor pan I’m using the Dan Fink speed wagon piece with the buckets from the new tool roadster. And the 32 dash from the og sedan kit. Still undecided on steering wheel and shifter. I’ll have to pull from the archives and see what looks good in there. And lastly I have to adjust a set of collector pipes for the headers as the ones from the new tool roadster do not mate up with the headers. My youngest son is here visiting so I’m plucking away at this build in the downtime aka during his teenage slumber! He has shown some interest in modelling so he has started on an engine. Maybe he will take up the mantle and continue on his own!
  20. Filling in some blanks on this update. Chassis is complete, engine is almost ready to mate to chassis. I’ve sourced a radiator that will work with the hemi and hopefully provide enough cooling.
  21. Yowzers that’s a lot of flash.
  22. I’m looking for a complete set of the stock wheels and tires from the amt 34 ford coupe. I thought I had a spare set but alas they are mia. They came in the 2 in 1 set or the stock kit. Thank you for looking edit: I should mention I’m in eastern Canada, Newfoundland to be exact!
