Haven't been around here as much as usual lately, so I just stumbled on this one @Bullybeef. Glad i found it, very nice build. Great parts combo.
-
Man, this may be one of the cleanest builds I've seen of this kit so far, and I've seen a lot. Love the color you chose and the luster it has.

It's sounds like it going to be pretty tough looking. I'll be following

It doesn't look like he's been here since 2019. I'll tag him for you. But your best hope is that somebody that knows him reaches out to him. @MGL But thanks for brining this one back up. I missed it when it was new. Such a cool build.

Man oh man, this came out great. I followed along with the build, thanks for taking us along for the ride. That color is so cool, and the sheen just sets it off. It's becoming your signature.

i clicked in expecting a standard build of this kit because you don't see them much anymore. But then I got to the engine, YOWZAH. You subverted my expectations. Cool build. I've seen that motor before on Jays page, but how did you do the Lincoln valve covers?
-
Very cool. I saw a build of this kit awhile back on Facebook and fell in love because the body style was so unique. I eventually found that kit so I'll be building one myself. Your build shows what a little care can do with this kit to turn in into something special.

Slippery paint job, great color choice.

Stunning build. great color choice. Your build shows what can be done by parts swapping with this classic Monogram kit. @alan barton check it out!

1949 Cadillac Series 62 Club Coupe "sedanette"

Very clean build and great color choice. Well done. -
Such a cool and unique build. I've commented on it on Instagram and actually shared it as my daily featured pic. I'm not a big fan of that Tom Daniel design, but you took it and made it so much cooler, and then the flattie V-12 to top it off is just awesome!

Revell Deuce Tudor being reissued
Mr. Metallic replied to CabDriver's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
No, Brians in Dekalb. Not so local 😋 Majors is my LHS, it's only 20 minutes away. I'm sure they will have some soon. -
Clean build of a classic kit. Nice to see it done in the blue instead of the more common metallic red or bright red.
-
Nice clean build. Classy styling and great color choice.

Revell Chopped Deuce Tudor I finally finished it
Mr. Metallic replied to magicmustang's topic in Model Cars
In regards to Revell kits engineered in the mid-60's, in particular their hot rods, in my opinion it's not a matter of quality control. Speaking as a person that does quality control for a living, their kits were designed with a breakdown of parts to elevate the level of scale fidelity of the parts that as a results makes many of them small and fiddly. As a result it can be challenging to get them assembled cleanly. Gerald, your build came out great. Thanks for sharing! -

Revell Deuce Tudor being reissued
Mr. Metallic replied to CabDriver's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
My not-so-local hobby shop just received some 32 Tudors, so they're hitting shelves and distributors right now. -
That's similar to how Round2 is selling kits in Walmart. it arrives as a premade and stocked display that the stock person can just place on the floor. No muss, no fuss. Once the stock dwindles they move the kits to the shelves to allow something else in the highly coveted aisle space.

Like others have said, great color combo, and the stance is spot on. Nice clean build.
