The Copper T / T-Bucket Hot Rod

The Copper T is finally finished! The model I began with was an old Monogram Ford Street "T" Roadster. The only modifications are the wheels/tires and I lowered the front suspension. Exterior Paint is Revell Enamel 93, and the Interior Paint Revell Enamel SM 378. Thanks for those who followed the build, enjoy!

A very cool build....perfect stance......

 

one suggestion.......

the decal on the door looks like it has some silvering under it. It may just be the photo....but if it does have some apply a drop of Walthers Solvaset to the decal and use a new sharp pin to stick just the decal film...not the image...and the Solvaset will eliminate the silvering.....

I really love this car, and how it looks like a race car in disguise. But I just noticed the cylinder heads are on backwards. I was staring at the engine wondering why the valvecovers were pointed the direction they were. You have the exhaust side pointing towards the intake manifold. Other than that, stellar build.
