Revell 29 Ford A roadster, yet another one

[Atmobil]

I was inspired by seeing all the other 29 A's on this forum so I bought one and started it in November. I have replaced the engine with the one from Revell 37/38 Ford pickup and rear axle from AMT partspack hot rod chassis. Tranverse leafspring and mount from AMT Ford A roadster chassis. Other than that, it is out of the box so far.

Still a lot of work to do but it is slowly getting there.

I like where this is going!

Great start.

Thank you very much. I have taken a lot of inspiration from other builds on this forum and also looking at vintage hot rod pictures on the H.A.M.B. site. I'm not normally a hot rod builder but it is nice to build something like this aswell.

Looking good so far.

Off to a good start.

I'm liking this one so far.

Thank you very much for the nice comments I'm tinkering a bit with this at the moment. I have tried to add a little depth to the interior by adding a wash to the doorpanels and seat. I have also replaced the brake pedal with the ones from Revell 32 Ford as it now has a manual instead of an auto gearbox. Will post some more pictures later.

I'm loving the engine/trans swap as well as the rear axle!!!  Very nice so far and I like the direction you're taking this one, Gaute!!!
