rmvw guy Posted April 6, 2016 Posted April 6, 2016 This is my attempt at a Box Art build. (Sort of) I have built this kit many times, one of my all time favorites.
Badluck 13 Posted April 6, 2016 Posted April 6, 2016 Ron that is some "Sweet T" ,captured the box art nicely ..... personally I like the driver side look with the open steelies also like how you did away with the un-slightly metal font mounting axel and posed front wheels...
rmvw guy Posted April 6, 2016 Author Posted April 6, 2016 Thanks Mike, I'm with you I like the steel wheels better, they are from the AMT '36 Ford, the ones from the kit were too wide in the rear. Besides that the moon discs don't really fit the '36 rims.
cobraman Posted April 6, 2016 Posted April 6, 2016 They both look great. I never was a fan of those chrome wheel discs. The open steel wheels look so much better IMO.
bobthehobbyguy Posted April 6, 2016 Posted April 6, 2016 Love both of them. Nice work. Very clean. Just finished doing one of these that was testors one coat purple and the frame and engine were inca gold. Also used the lathem blower.
Snake45 Posted April 6, 2016 Posted April 6, 2016 This is pretty much the dictionary definition of "Nailed it."
rmvw guy Posted April 7, 2016 Author Posted April 7, 2016 Thanks guys you are too kind. The disk hub caps were just for the photo. I think they would look good on the right rims sourced from two kits. Really though, I love the old AMT chrome steel rims and would hate to cover them. The paint is not the right color like the box but, it was what I had.
