Very classy looking Deuce.

I have really enjoyed seeing all three of your models recently posted. All are historical and well built.

You certainly did this one justice. Well built.

Check this out regarding the GMC 702 V-12 https://www.macsmotorcitygarage.com/inside-gmcs-mighty-702-cubic-inch-v12/

Thanks Steve for taking and posting your photos because I was so preoccupied I only took the three I posted earlier. Entrants chose their favourite models in each category while the public picked peoples' choice. Many of the favourites can be seen in Steve's photos. Deuce - Russ Ferguson - 32 Ford HiBoy, Hot Rod - Martin Aveyard - 30 Model A Coupe, Custom - Russ Ferguson - 50 Oldsmobile, Street Machine - Martin Aveyard - 76 GTX, Factory Stock - Martin Aveyard - Jag XKE. Racing Car - Phil Dauphinee - 70 1/2 Camaro Trans-Am, Other Vehicle - Gord Enquist - Model A Planter, Large Scale - Dennis Besler - Kookie T, Small Scale - Phil Dauphinee - 1/32 32 Ford, Over All - Martin Aveyard - 67 GTX, People's Choice - Weathered Dodge Dart. Martin also won a couple of Model A kits donated by BC Hobbies.

Great set of photos Steve.

Deuce Days in Scale was a fabulous model car display with a steady stream of spectators all day. There were about 175 models on the tables with an emphasis on Deuces but also cars of all genres 1972 and older. It was a fantastic Deuce Days with something like 500 Deuces parked around the Inner Harbour with another 700+ 1952 vehicles and tens of thousands spectators checking out the fabulous cars.

I really thought Coast to Coast did a great job with their Smoothster inspired bodies. I believe they were based in your part of the country. For my scale version I combined the Smoothster with the Coupster front end

The cars have started to arrive for Northwest Deuce Days in Victoria BC Canada. Every three years Deuce Days is the largest gathering of 32 Fords anywhere plus lots of 1952 and earlier cars. I went downtown for the 9:50 arrival of the Coho ferry from Port Angles Washington. The tide was low so unloading was slow and careful. I will be going back for the 2:15 arrival which is reported to be fully reserved by hot rods. I will be adding to my fotki album all weekend. Sunday is the Deuce Days in Scale Model Car Show which I will post separately. 2022 DEUCE DAYS album | Phildaupho | Fotki.com, photo and video sharing made easy. This was the first car off

Great to see these two venerable Deuce roadsters. They are a good warm up for all the Deuces I will be seeing the next four day during Deuce Days in Victoria BC Canada both full scale and model cars.

You really captured the Boyd look which I was very much attracted to back in the day. I did visit his shop in the late 1990's. The Smoothster was there which I think will go down in history as a very significant custom car along with a number of his other builds.

Great looking Model A. Very attractive couple with your Deuce Roadster.

Another very interesting project emerges from your workbench which I look forward to following.

Fantastic build and I really like your photography.

WOW and I mean a BIG WOW. That is one super gorgeous BIG DEUCE. Absolutely Love it.

WOW - This is going to look fantastic. Really like your colour choices and mods you have done. The headliner is very attractive.

I really like where you are going with this build.

So far so good. I really like the roof removed look.

I have my Deuces ready to take to the show next weekend

Gorgeous Deuce. I agree with Bill that this kit has great proportions from which very attractive full fendered roadsters can be built.

Two super nice builds. It is amazing how a few subtle changes can completely change the look of what essentially are two very similar hot rods. I really like them both. They sort of remind of an old cartoon where the main character had an angel on one shoulder and the devil on the other.

Thanks Misha for making this post. I am sure looking forward to this year's event and it looks like the weather is going to finally get more summer like. See you soon.

Totally gorgeous A roadster that captures a timeless look.

I really like your Jag as I have always been attracted to the shape of the early XKs roofs.

Thanks Tom. Happy Fourth.
