disabled modeler Posted August 22, 2015 Posted August 22, 2015 Lee...I am digging this very cool looking kit think Ill have to get one besides its a wagon...
Guest Posted August 22, 2015 Posted August 22, 2015 Thanks guys. I really like this kit, in spite of the tiny little flaws, which are correctable or not even really noticeable.
Tom Geiger Posted August 23, 2015 Posted August 23, 2015 Lee, from your last photos I can see you use the same small bathroom cups as paint stands! Outstanding! I just got this kit Friday night, I can not wait to dig in!
Guest Posted August 23, 2015 Posted August 23, 2015 Yep, I use all sorts of things, whatever is handy, lol.
Guest Posted August 23, 2015 Posted August 23, 2015 OK, here is the rolling chassis, hubcap decals and exhaust tips to be added after final assembly.
Al Hoffman Posted August 23, 2015 Posted August 23, 2015 Looks like your getting close yo the homestretch. These things are a lot more enjoyable to put together when the frame is separate from the floor pan.
Lovefordgalaxie Posted August 24, 2015 Posted August 24, 2015 (edited) Engine is completed. Lee, your engine is looking great. You have to fix the air cleaner tough. That air intake hole on it faces the inner fender, and not the hood. The way it is you may have clearence problems under the hood. Easy fix tough. Another detail, that you didn't show yet, but it's wrong even on the box art model. The gravel shield or splash pan behind the front bumper is not body color, it's argent (flat aluminum). The engine on my supercharged Custom Tudor is not as detailed as yours, but the air cleaner is on the position it is on 1:1 cars. 1957 Ford Custom Tudor Inca Gold by Túlio Lazzaroni, on Flickr The splash pan: 1957 Ford Custom Tudor by Túlio Lazzaroni, on Flickr Edited August 24, 2015 by Lovefordgalaxie

It is good to know when one has it wrong.
