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.

That's a pretty nice build. Love the old school stuff.

Boy that's looking pretty good so far Keith. I built this kit some time back.

Thanks much Dan.

I appreciate it Andrew. You can still see the stock car in mine right

Really nice looking Ford Bob. Love all the detail work and just a Great looking build all around.

That's a solid looking build Bob. The 66 is my favorite body style as well. I'm diggin the build Buddy.

Yeah, that's a lot of money for a model kit. I'd never pay that. The detail on the printed Uncertain T came out really nice. I read an article about the 1:1 Uncertain T and it has been found and will go on display before it is retored.

I appreciate it Carl. Much obliged there Misha. Yup, 3D printing is making it's way into our hobby. Thank's Bill. Good morning and I appreciate the kind words. I think your 30 Model A would look pretty kewl in that color scheme.

Thanks man.

Much obliged there my friend. Thanks.

Thanks. Yes Sir it is. Thanks. It is indeed. Thanks Spike. I appreciate it man. Thanks much. I think the color came out nice. I appreciate ya Brotha. Thanks. I think for my first 3D printed model it came out pretty good. Thanks. Rare indeed. I tell you what Andrew, I do appreciate the kind words man. Thanks man. Those whitewalls took two trys on a couple of those tires.

Thank you Sir. Yup, going old school seems to always work well.

I do appreciate it. Thanks.

Much obliged.

Much appreciated Buddy.

Thanks man.

I'm calling this one done fellows. https://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/topic/201001-1935-ford-3-window-coupe-chopped/

I finished this one up earlier today. This was an .stl file that I purchased and printed out on my 3D printer. This was my first 3D printed kit and it's not my best work but I learned a lot on this build that I can apply to my next 3D printed project. This is the stock kit as it comes printed out except for the plug wires, licence plate, and Accel coil. I had to do a little thinking on this one as the gear shift had to be installed before the body went on and the steering wheel and column and to be installed after the body was glued on. That was a chore. Paint is Tamiya TS-81 Royal Light Gray and cleared with Splash Paints 2K clear. The rag top, running boards, and grille were painted with Tamiya XF-85 Rubber Black.

Looking threw my eyes it looks pretty sharp man.

Boy, that's a looker right there Randy. That Italian Red looks Super nice.
