  1. 1936 Ford 3 window coupe chopped to 6-1/4" scale height. Will be a post war customized hot rod, updated with disc brakes.
  2. I got this as a built model at the HCMA flea market- painted pink and white! It had the original AMT chopped top which I chopped further to a scale 6-1/4 inches. Added a 3D printed flathead with Navarro heads and 4 carbs, also replaced the rear end with a quick change and added disk brakes. Dual exhausts have fishtails. Rumble seat removed and converted to a trunk. Scratch built fender skirts, and working on a gloss black paint job. Pix include comparisons of the stock, kit chopped, and final top chop. Interior includes a tach in the center of the dash and a necker knob on the steering wheel. painted some goodies for the trunk- gas, oil, and water cans, a tool box, and a jack. Also a preliminary mock up.
  3. Nothing better than a red 32 roadster!
  4. Great repurposing of the Hawk streamliners! I have all four, and now I have some inspiration to build one.
  5. Will also trade for paint or scratch building supplies
  6. Awesome work!
  7. All you need is some beveriges in the cup holders.
  8. Making progress- finished the engine, and trial mockup of the body, interior, and finished chassis- a small amount of material needs to be removed from the bottom of the front wheel wells to drop the front end a bit- otherwise looking good!
  9. More progress- rear seat cushions cut out, new cushy tuck 'n' roll installed, and rear tail light housings are taking shape- a bit more sanding and we will be there.
  10. Have a few of these, no mention of what engine this is.
  11. Noel, I did indeed build a Renwal Revivals Bugatti T101C. Should be under glass.
  12. Absolutely!
  13. Number 7 in the stash bash- AMT 1949 Mercury which I got in trade several years ago. Most of the body mods were done by the original builder but I am going to turn it into my own creation. The tail lights are one of my additions- they are headlight bezels from a styline nose piece from the original AMT 1957 Thunderbird with the headlight lenses painted red. I also plan on adding a continental kit, turning it into a Mercury Continental. With the chopped roof, the rear end looked a bit stubby, so this will lengthen it out. Engine will be the Mercury flathead with Offenhause heads and two carbs with a teardrop air cleaner from Replicas and Miniatures. Grille will be the Corvette grille from the AMT 57 Chevy.
  14. EMRE, I got the body years ago at a flea market. No idea who made it- sorry!
  15. Had a great trade with Stavanzer. Will trade with him any time!
  16. fuel injected Ardun flathead powered belly tanker from early 50's
  17. Need some 1960's AMT outside mirrors, also 1940's Ford wheels and hubcaps.
  18. This is still available.
