I really like this old kit. Fits together very well with just a little extra work, is scaled quite accurately, and lends itself to all manner of hot-rod interpretations.

Nice to see a stocker being built too.

Thanks guys.

It's just straight out of a rattle can, not polished or cleared, sometimes I get very lucky.

There is a lot of light coats on it though, I nearly used a whole 300ml Halfords can, which would be like Duplicolour in the US I think.

Thanks Carl.

I have the interior and hood/uptop sprayed light tan to give it a bit of a lift, pics to follow when I build up the windscreen.

It's looking lovely. Just for future reference if you decide to build another stock Model A. What appeared to be mold lines between the upper and lower cowl area (ahead of the doors) is actually the separation between the gas tank and the lower half of the body. You can see the separation line in this picture of a Tudor (above the red flower sticker.)

As I said your build is coming along beautifully, just a hint for next time. Of course if the separation line is there just ignore me..... ;)

I pretty much went through it sanding on one side before I realised Peter, they're both there just about! I'm no expert on Fords this old.

Thanks for the kind words.
