Revell '48 Ford Coupe

Here's my '48 Ford coupe, built in 2012. The paint is Testors One Coat Mythical Maroon with three coats of clear, wet sanded and polished. Enjoy the pics!

For a straight out of the box model, this is about as nice as it gets! Beautiful early custom.

Do you always paint the chassis components red and the mufflers blue?

[Intmd8r]

I like it. The '48 Ford never looked so good

The mufflers in these Revell flathead-motored kits are representative of Smithy glass packs which have always come painted hammertone blue since the 40's. Definitely a correct traditional hot rod detail.

Man, that's nice! Great finish, and the seats look very real. Very nice work!

Beautiful!   Great job on the paint.

Very nicely done. Folks are real divided on that top chop but it sure builds up nice.

Currently I only have two finished models with red suspension and blue mufflers, but you might see more in the future. Hahahahaha!

Nicely done. The color, hubcaps, interior are all very cool. But I'm also one that thinks a chopped top on a '48 Ford is an improvement.

Beautiful , a job well done !   And personally I like the contrast in colors .

No fuzzy dice hanging from the rear-view mirror? Seriously, that is a very well executed build!

[Hubert Rollins]

Perfect!! Paint is amazing!!

Maybe he grew up in the fifties

Nothin' wrong with that on quite a few counts.

Beautiful model..

[cobraman]

Looks great !

[Ramfins59]

That's a great looking Ford Aaron.

[Mercelo]

That's a beautiful build, super clean all around. The color suits it well, and the paint job looks outstanding!  Nicely done... 

[Ace-Garageguy]

Very nice. I think Revell did a better job on the chop on this one than they did on the '49 Merc.

Anyway, beautiful model. Maroon is, to me, one of the two best colors for the '48 Ford, whether standard or custom. 

Great paint, fine work overall. I'd be proud to have my name on that one.

Beautiful build, probably the nicest build of this kit I have seen so far !

[Dave Van]

Very cool build!!!! Can't wait for the stock body kit. I can build my 1/1 46 with it.
