37 Ford Rat Rod

[hgbben]

This was a build for the club I'm in, pick a kit from another members stash and build - no restrictions. Started with the Monogram 37 Ford hot rod and combined elements from the AMT Hard Hat Hauler and a few bits from other kits. This was the first time for many items such as z-ing a frame, wiring the engine and most of all not something in my comfort zone. On with the pics.

Gotta fix that fender scrubbing the tire! 

This is a great shot, and the build looks to have been fun .. and magnificent looking!

LOVE IT !!!!  Yeah, that tire rub would be quite unfortunate on a 1:1, but I have to say I absolutely love that little detail on the model. I'd have never thought to do such a thing, even though I do have a couple of models where such damage would be applicable.

Looks like a fun build. Beyond the tire rub the outer edge of the slick looks like you just did a burn out.
