crazyjim Posted June 24, 2015 Posted June 24, 2015 Here's my '36 Ford convertible. I thought it would be a roadster, but the box says convertible. It's finished in HOK burgundy kandy over orion silver basecoat. Big & little Pegasus wheels, frenched taillights, highback bucket seats and a console. I left the hood sides off to better view the all chrome TBird engine.
Petetrucker07 Posted June 24, 2015 Posted June 24, 2015 Beautiful. I love this year, the last year of the stand alone headlights. Paint looks great, well done.
Agent G Posted June 24, 2015 Posted June 24, 2015 Love the colors! If I recall correctly a roadster, by defination, has a removable top and windshield. This could be more accurately described as a convertible as such. Somebody more knowledgeble will chime in I'm sure..... G
cobraman Posted June 24, 2015 Posted June 24, 2015 Nice looking car, love the paint and the wheels. Good job !!

That is what my limited knowledge has to offer . Great looking 36 Jim.
wayne swayze Posted June 24, 2015 Posted June 24, 2015 Very nice! Nice touches like the red accent in the bumpers and knock-offs and valve stem caps! Really like the fuel lines, and the colour and wheels make this especially a great looking car. Well done!
peekay Posted June 24, 2015 Posted June 24, 2015 Fine looking '36. I also liked the red accents - a nice touch and done well.
Art Anderson Posted June 25, 2015 Posted June 25, 2015 Very nicely done! FWIW, the difference between the Monogram kit and a "convertible" (Ford still termed this body stye "Cabriolet) and a "roadster" is that roadsters did not have rollup side windows, but rather they still used snap-on side curtains for inclement weather. In keeping with tradition, Ford's roadsters, 1933-36 used a bolt-on windshield frame that was chrome plated, while their last couple of years of roadsters had windshields built integral with the cowling in much the same manner as a cabriolet (convertible) and 4dr convertible sedans.
