Insert Wolf whistle here __________ !
Delivery has an '80s vibe with the color, what moves me is the bodywork.
Got one of these in my stash..thanks for posting .
Got some pre winter work to do...thanks again.
Walking around with what looked like a potato in my cloth diapers with sharp "safety" pins at each hip.
Dragging a glass baby bottle with one hand and my stuffed monkey with the other hand.
Thanks Y'all

This was a 5 dollar gluebomb I picked up last year.

Chopped the top and painted the result with fabric tan paint.
Body got the Revell Caddy grill with a custom surround.

Finished the Testors burgundy '48 Carson Top Ford.
Went for a Ayala/Barris/Alexander kustom style with full fadeaway fenders
from the Revell '48 kit. Head lites are the small buckets from a '32
and the rear lites are painted on the bumper guards. Carson top is
a vacuumed form piece with a small height reduction for better flow.
Full wheel covers are original issue '36 Ford (thanks Bill).
Dupli-Color T278 dark canyon red...white primer on the Carson top.
Trunk opened and trimmed with the usual suspects ...Gas/Oil/H2O cans
spare tire and chrome fire fire extinguisher.
thanks for checking out the build thread.
