Steve_L Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 1941 FORD GOLD CUSTOM When I saw the Bandit Resins 1941 Ford Custom kit, I knew I wanted to build it. I bought it, checked it out with the Revell 1948 Ford Custom donor kit and found that the two were a perfect match. I did a lot of work with the chassis to lower it right to the ground and added chrome wheels and detailed tires. The resin body was already chopped so I added frenched and tunneled headlights and 1949 Ford taillights. I used the Revell interior as is with flat black upholstery. I used the Revell kit drive train painted in the kit-specified colors. I covered the body with Duplicolor Sandable Flat Black primer, VHT High Temperature Engine Gold and Rustoleum clear, polished to a high gloss. It was a fun build that has a prominent place on my display shelf! Enjoy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phildaupho Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 Sharp looking custom. Really like your color choice. I have always thought the 41 front end to be the most attractive of the fat-fendered Fords Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
