RT6PK Posted February 15, 2017 Posted February 15, 2017 (edited) My dad's birthday is this Sunday. For his present, I replicated his 1:1 hot rod. It's the Revell '30 Coupe. '40 Ford Standard hubcaps with a hopped up flathead from the '40 Ford custom. Banjo rear end from the parts box. Everything else was pretty much out of the box. It was almost as if Revell had his car in mind when they designed the kit, (except for the aforementioned mods). Happy 71st Dad. Edited February 15, 2017 by RT6PK

espo Posted February 15, 2017 Posted February 15, 2017 That is the way a Hot Rod is supposed to look.
