junkyardjeff Posted June 19, 2016 Share Posted June 19, 2016 I picked up this kit today and it looks like I will have to do some parts scrounging to make it as a traditional hotrod ,this kit does not have the gas tank and the frame does not stick out far enough so I was wondering if there is a more original frame and gas tank I could use on it.

Ace-Garageguy Posted June 19, 2016 Share Posted June 19, 2016 The Switchers frames look absolutely nothing like real '32 frames.The other AMT '32 frames are pretty bad too for the most part.The Revell '32 Ford frames are nice enough, but they all have Ford 9" rear ends, not the traditional buggy spring. They DO have nice gas-tanks and frame horns front and rear that are about right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
junkyardjeff Posted June 19, 2016 Author Share Posted June 19, 2016 I am going to look into the Revell frames to put this body on,its a shame it does not have a good frame as the body looks good so I will probably build the T first while I gather parts for the 32.
