Lindberg 1:32 1925 Ford Model T Street Rod

[talon63]

In addition to the 1:32 49 Ford Tudor in the Under Glass section, I also picked up a few other 1:32 Lindbergs. This week's car is the 1925 Model T Street Rod.

Made a few changes to this one. The stacks and exhaust on the Cadillac engine are made from rivet sleeves. The steering wheel and rear tank are from the parts box. tyres, rims and axles are a donation from a diecast 64 1/2 Mustang replacing the styrene Big and Littles in the kit. Front suspension and windscreen frame are covered in BMF. Color is Krylon Celery with a white interior. Still plenty to do with this one, these are just some dry fit shots.

As always, thanks for looking, and comments are welcome!

Nice work! I like it.

The only problem is the "magic floating generator"...

Floating generators......... you can buy them at JC Whitney !

And you also might need actual conections between the engine and the radiator...

As in radiator hoses.

Thanks for the comments. there's a fair amount of detail missing but, it's still on the bench. lots to do. also need to make glass, the kit pieces look almost frosted (not cloudy like glue exposure, just poorly formulated maybe), there are still few interior details to finish and add. Along with the missing plumbing, I do intend to add some wiring and a little firewall detail as well. I also haven't decided about the top. I like the look, but the fit is way off. and the severe cut of it screams for the inclusion of some framework.

the Pyro / Lindberg kits have lots of potential, nice work.
