Really great to see such a good looking "Woodie"

Very elegant looking Deuce in this color combination. Hopefully Revell will bring the 3W back someday soon.

Very impressive in all respects - design, execution and beauty

The Future of Revell...for 2024 at least.
Phildaupho replied to niteowl7710's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
Since appearing on the Stevens International TBA list there has been no mention of when and if we can expect the re-release of the much desired Revell '32 Ford Sedan. -
Thanks Pierre and Tim for your encouragement. Since completing the chassis which I consider the difficult part I am having trouble getting motivated to get the body finished in fact I started another project which I forced myself to put back in the box yesterday. Hopefully I will start painting the body soon.

All of the under body assembly is now completed. I did have to reduce the height of the distributor to gave adequate hood clearance. There are very few color photos of 005 in 1964 but in the ones I have seen the exhaust appears to be silver rather than white. I can now move onto completing the body in preparation for painting.

I am always blown away by how real your models look as a result of superb craftsmanship, fantastic photography and a great background. I am looking forward to seeing your Mustang up close.

You did a fantastic job enhancing a Danbury Mint model which normally are exceptionally good to start with. -

Garage 56 Camaro - Le Mans 2023
Phildaupho replied to Phildaupho's topic in Other Racing: Road Racing, Salt Flat Racers
Thanks guys - I appreciate your comments. It was a very interesting project. The Garage 56 is now part of history and I assume it will find a home in a museum but when will it again be seen and heard by race car fans? -
What did you see on the road today?
Phildaupho replied to Harry P.'s topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
I am currently travelling in Scotland and today a number of Mustangs passed going in the opposite direction. I wondered if any of them were right hand steering. I pulled into a car park and there happened to be a right hand steering Mustang parked in front of me. -

You certainly did justice to one of the most eye catching liveries of F! -

I did find some time to work on the engine. It is now painted and assembled except for wiring, plumbing and exhaust. I could not resist seeing if the hood would fit flush. This is the first time I have test fit the completed interior to the chassis and body with the fuel tank installed. I previously mentioned that I had reduced the height of the fuel tank to give clearance for the differential. I am not sure if it was a direct consequence of this modification but I ended up having to trim tabs on the top of the rear frame cross member and the mounting points for the spare tire frame. After these mods were done everything appears to fit and the hood closes flush. You can also see the small triangular extension to the forward edge of the read flares. I notice I still have some work to do on the driver's side cowl vent.

I have always been a fan of show rods. I especially like the photo of your Coupe with your Sedan.
