BIGTRUCK Posted December 20, 2015 Posted December 20, 2015 (edited) This Lindberg '29 is being built right from the box, only thing besides painting the kit is I removed every seam and ejector mark except a few on the chrome windshield frame The tires and rear tank are 2pc so they were glued and split seam removed. On the tires the slicks are the same size as the ''Competition and Custom ''slick set, and parts box front tires can be used but I chose kit parts only. The rear tank is huge and should be cut down, looks like a 50 gallon tank.Only painting left are wheels [ RED ] add whitewall to tires and seat. Chrome thumbtacks would work well and look nice on this kit but kit parts only Paint is all semi-glosses or flats, some parts had chrome removed and painted [headers] I chose to build this just to do something that didnt need . putty,, chopping,, sawing ,,.other kits,, resin and a book of new curse words..

GaryR Posted December 20, 2015 Posted December 20, 2015 Good ol' Lindberg!No such thing as a '29 T. Ford made the last T's in 1927m a 29 would be a model A.I do like this kit, I plan to do mine with the Ansen equipped A motor fro Revells RPU.It's a simple kit, but sort of appealing.
dragzz Posted December 20, 2015 Posted December 20, 2015 u are off to a great start i love that kit and the build is clean as well u going to do wireing on the motor as well
misterNNL Posted December 21, 2015 Posted December 21, 2015 The box itself is screwed up to start with.The last model T was built in 1927.Ford changed to building the model A in 1928....jus sayin.
mredjr Posted December 21, 2015 Posted December 21, 2015 Good job Ken I would never have bought this kit but after seeing yours I may reconsider. It looks like it would be simple but fun to build. I like kits that take me back to the good old days. Elvin
henry57 Posted December 21, 2015 Posted December 21, 2015 Interesting kit, I've thought about picking one up but never have.It looks like the box art shows a SBF instead of the Hemi, and the grille shell is a 28-29 A.
