Thanks man.
-
I appreciate it Chris. Thanks for checking it out.
-
I do appreciate it Steve. Yeah, this one was a pretty kewl build for me.
-
Much obliged there Pappy.
-
Thanks DJ. I wasn't to sure about the rear fenders until I did the mock-up. Im now thinking more about that 572 Blown BBC withe the Tunnel Ram. I'll need to build it and do another mock-up.
-
Yup, that's a Hot Rod. Love those fat fenders.
-
The 40 Ford PU fenders are now glued to the 51 Anglia body. The fenders stick down past the body in the rear about 1/16" and will have to be sanded off. The jury is still out on how it looks.
-
Well...I got out the Dremel tool and knocked off the rear fenders on the body. Now the tedious work of sanding the fenders off the 40 Ford PU to fit this body.
-
That's some pretty kewl stuff in the stash. I got my flip nose fitting pretty good but not I thinking about the 572 Blown BBC I have and that would require cutting the hood.
-
Good looking build there Anton. I like the acrylic blue with the dark wheels, goes together really well. Nice build.

AMT 51 Chevy Bel Air - build start and a question
Zippi replied to eran_k's topic in WIP: Model Cars
Looking pretty good there Eran. I like the body style of the 51 Chevy. -
I appreciate the info Noel. Seems like the Anglia body style was popular everywhere. I'm going to have fun with this one. If I don't get myself into trouble thinking to far outside the box 😁
-
Thanks Sonny. Yeah, it's a Great body style for a drag car or a Pro Street which is more of what I'm going for. They are a little on the small side but still Bigger than the Fiat 695 SS drag car I recently built. That was a hoot to build.
-
Thanks Steve. I'm still in the cratching my head stage on this one so far.
-
Nice. What 3D printer did you get? The Uncertain T prints out pretty good.
-
Thank's Elliot. I like the rear tires sticking out if I was building a Gasser but I like the tires tucked up under the fender wells on a Pro Street.
-
Thanks Robert. I prefer it over trying tape off the rag top and paint it.
-
Thank's David. Yup, old school looks pretty good sometimes.

'32 Ford Hi-Boy Roadster on rolling Deuce chassis from Revell Model A kit
Zippi replied to Phildaupho's topic in Model Cars
Man...what a kewl looking little Hot Rod Phil. Love the colors and the steelies with the dog dish hub caps. -
Thanks man. Yup, still looking things over. Never done anything like this. I'd like to see someones tutorial on doing this. I'm part Werewolf and that cut is from a coffee cup breaking in my hand yesterday when I was drying the cup out inside with a towel.
-
The rag top has been deleted. I'll hit it with a little gray primer to see if there are any traces left of it.
-
I've had this open for a while but I had to finish up another build. The flip nose fits really well so I'm thinking I might keep it that way. I do not like the way the rear tires stick out past the fenders for a street machine. I will be removing the rag top. I have these rear fenders from an old Monogram 1940 Ford pickup that would solve that problem but would require a lot modifications as they appear to stick out a little to much and are at a funny angle. The wheels and tires came out of the Monogram '55 Chevy Bel Air Street Machine 2'1 kit. I'm still in the thinking process on this one.
-
Thanks Bill. I really like how it turned out.
-
I with ya Scott, I like those Big ole meats also. Looking good man.
