40 ford custom (lindberg)

[stitchdup]

I built this last year for a build off on jerryscherrys forum. It's the lindberg kit with one or two changes. The interior is from a camero, engine from a mpc doh charger and the rest is from the floor/leftovers. Apologies for the link, my pics are too big

Wild! I've seen this one before somewhere, still love it...reminds me of the builds from the old model car mags of the 60s. When I read "camaro interior" I thought there was no way such a thing could look right in a 60s-style custom '40 ford...but I was wrong! Those seats and door panels look great. Nice paint too

Very nice looking custom. I enjoyed scrolling through the pics to see how you made this. Nicely done. Great color choice too. I am working on a couple of 40's right now myself. One has a very similar chop.

WOW!! That is proof that one can polish a turd. This kit is terrible. I got one, and ended using the chrome to restore and old build of the AMT kit, and tossed the rest on the bin.

Thanks mate, I found it pretty forgiving when I chopped it, the thick plastic maybe worked in my favor in that respect, but I didn't use too much of the kit in the end. just the body/chrome pieces and chassis.
