Pat, totally rethinking taking on the notorious task this coupe appears to offer up. Picking up on the additional touches of detail are greatly appreciated. Dare I say a hopped-up version might be hidden under that classic design skin. I picked this kit up at our local IPMS show and swap meet a couple months ago. -KK

1965 Chevy II Gasser Inspired Hot Rod - Let’s Try This Again!
Kit Karson replied to Dennis Lacy's topic in WIP: Model Cars
What is most interesting is watching your mind work through the minor modifications just to make everything fit and work together. Parts from here and parts from there all coming one at a time left matching the right a tuned concert of modified hot rod and drag car trouble cliff and bass cliff notes sounding louder with every step you take during construction, Brother! Here comes the parade!! -KK -
WOW! Outstanding replication in scale going on here! Wanna see more, Brother! -KK

Unfortunately, there's more than just the body that would have to be cast. The '33 3W will not fit the stock AMT '34 5W Coupe chassis, let alone the fenders. I even talked to Norm Verber before he decided to cut back on his casting. He had cast a couple of my other Deuce master's several years ago. Ed & I go way back, and this is not something he was interested in a couple of years ago. It's not something everyone is looking for when 3D is able to do one that would work on either the Monogram or AMT foundation. -KK

Oh! That this day would come when both the builder's and the person that this combo build was a tribute to, could and did unite in the salty desert town in Utah. Paul & I were truly honored meet Tim and share the finish work Paul completed in Montana. After offering the trib' build to Tim for his taking, Paul retained ownership of the '29 PU, Tow-Behind & matching Go-Kart and it returned home and then he offered visitation rights to me! A conversation with @Dennis Lacyand @Rocking Rodney Ratand @Speedprobrought up the question of having an Under Glass Trib' invitational thread and it has been mentioned as a potential article in Model Cars Magazine in the upcoming Hot Rod Hootenanny II.

You hit this one out of the park, Brother! The imagineering that is on display in your rendition of a street roadster from the days of Pro Street influenced hot rods is beyond belief! Outstanding and so thought provoking!! -KK

Group 29 - the thread for everyone's '29 Ford Roadster builds
Kit Karson replied to Phildaupho's topic in Model Cars
OK! So, this is what happens when your attention is on building and not cruising the forum... this is a very impressive thread with '29s & '30s builds! This is before the class grew to the point of moving Street Rods to the other end of the hall! No kidding!! Added mine!
