Kenny Posted March 4, 2008 Posted March 4, 2008 I'm calling this one finished. This is the first model I have completed in I don't know how long. At least 12 years. It didn't turn out exactly like I envisioned but I'm okay with it. It was a fun build and I'm a better model builder now than when I started 7 weeks ago, thanks to the help of many here on the forum. 1934 Ford pickup cab chopped 4", bed shortened 20", wheelbase shortened 6". Modern aftermarket deuce chassis with IFS. Mustang Cobra modular DOHC engine with scratchbuilt intake. Here is the WIP thread. And now some pics:
Gray Smith Posted March 4, 2008 Posted March 4, 2008 ooh, ooh, first post!.... looks reeeeeaaal good there Kenny, you did a great job on this one, stance, paint, top chop, motor...all look great, glad it turned out good for you Gray
dub Posted March 4, 2008 Posted March 4, 2008 Excellent work! The engine looks fantastic, body is just as good and the interior just gets to me. I still have issues with interior detail. You have it down (as do others around here). Great job, especially after a dozen year hiatus!
Raul_Perez Posted March 4, 2008 Posted March 4, 2008 Very nice, Kenny!! The chop looks pretty good!! I really like to model box of the kit on the front seat...
