Great project. I am a huge Dan Gurney fan having seen him race back in the day and actually met him in 2006. I always associated Dan with Fords so was surprised when this Chevy reemerged.

Great looking F1. Well built. There was one of these on the stage at the big 2025 F1 livery reveal in London on Tuesday.

This is going to be one great looking truck with hood closed and especially with hood open. That engine is fabulous.

I would just like to thanks both James and Tim for their insightful perspectives on the business aspects of the hobby

Hi Tim In case you missed it there is an Under Glass thread for completed Tudors

Le Monstre est magnifique !!

Far out E-Type

Good lookin Boss !!

Very nicely built. I once had a 65 that I never got the way I wanted. Many years later I almost bought a lowered 67 but not well done and unsafe at any speed !!

Very interesting piece of automotive and model car history.

This is my first completion of 2025 and the 5th of 8 ‘32 Ford models I am building for Deuce Days in Scale this July in Victoria BC. It is the latest Revel Roadster body with the Duval Windshield which I had used as a test body for some painting and highlighting techniques I wanted to use on a previous project. I decided this build would be show & go inspired so it would need a supercharged engine, drag slicks, a roll bar, a drag chute, lots of chrome and all should be over the top. The are so many historic Deuces that influenced this model starting with Tom McMullin’s flamed blown Hi-Boy, Phil Cool’s 1978 AMBR winning supercharged big-block roadster with monster drag slicks, Pete Chapouris’ Limefire, a few Deuce roadsters built specifically for drag racing and of course Stacey David’s Rat Roaster. ALTERATIONS & ADDITIONS Most of interior is from the Rat Roaster Dash, steering wheel & steering column from first issue Revell Roadster Roll bar from Revell ’41 Willys HEMI engine is a combination of ’32 5-W & ’41 Willys Street Rod parts Headers & exhaust from AMT Phantom Vickie Replicas & Miniatures Winters Quick Change Everything else from spare parts Tamiya Candy Lime Metallic with kit decals

Nice save.

Gorgeous model of a gorgeous truck. Very well built.

I always liked this car from back in the day when Parnelli raced it at Pikes Peak. At the 2003 Monterey Historics - Parnelli was in this car and Dan Gurney was in a '63 Galaxie. They were supposed to be doing parade laps but they were both sideways coming out of the last corner.

Being a Falcon guy I just had to see what a 49 Shoebox Falcon would look like. You really nailed it. I like it a lot.

I like this very much. Have always thought Alpines were good looking cars. You have made very contemporary.

Far out man!

I really like it. Well done.

Thanks everybody for your gracious comments. Not only am I very pleased with how it turned out and I also am extremely impressed with the fidelity of the kit itself as simple as it is especially the fact that it was released so soon after its victorious 1964 campaign. The instructions actually state - " We would like to acknowledge the assistance of Luigi Chinetti in helping us to produce this winner as an exact scale model." Chinetti was the USA Ferrari importer/promoter and a three time winner of Le Mans including the 64 race in this car. This is a fuzzy photo I just took with my old iphone as I wrote this reply.

I finished this morning for the Facebook 24 Hour Challenge after working on it for a total of about nine hours. It is the 1/24 Monogram Ferrari 275P. The curbside kit was first issued in 1964 after a 275P won the Sebring 12hr and the Le Mans 24hr. It could be built either as a slot-car or a display model. It's pretty impressive for a model from 60 years ago!! ALTERATIONS & ADDITIONS Re-scribed all panel lines and opened up hood vents and brake ducts Modified interior side panels to be more like real car. Dash drilled for gauge decals mounted from behind Used aluminum tube for exhaust tips Dull coated and dark washed wheels Dark washed rear louvers Tamiya Italian Red with clear coat

Fabulous collection

Awesome old Chevy. Great stance.

Great project. TRy to get ti done by the spring IPMS Victoria model show as there is a trophy for best pickup this year. The new issue of Canadian Hot Rods magazine is the annual pickup issue.

Great build of a gorgeous dragster and the funny car is a good looker too!!

Excellent project and you are doing fabulous work. For a display of the 15 versions of '32 Fords my modelling group did for Deuce Days in Scale 2019 we used a Jimmy Flintstone B400 which was OK for the display but yours is going to be so much better. I will be interested with how you eventually pull off a Panel Delivery Truck as we found this one to require the most scratch building using a much modified body from a '37 Panel.
