SEMA 32 FORD Under Glass .

[jeff f]

I have seen pics of a chopped 32 3 window Ford at 2017 SEMA . It's British racing green with black Dayton wires . Looks to have an 8 stack 312 Ford engine also . I think it's just too cool ! So here goes .

Thanks Jeff .

That chopped '32 at the SEMA show is definitely a nice one !  You're off to a great start with those wheels and tires !

[Jonathan]

Sweet!  Is this inspired by the Brooklands Special w/ the Right Hand Drive?  Looking forward to seeing more - nice work on those wheels!

[Immortal Chips]

Good start, I'll be following

Wheels & Tires . My favorite way to start a model . The wheels are from Monogram 1/24 30 Ford with aluminum rings at the rear . I made the two bar spinners from aluminum also . The rear tires are 32 kit generic Goodyears . Fronts are Monogram frontrunners from drag kits . They are bored out to a scale 20 inches . I have a can of Tamiya AS - 21 dark green I'll use with clear . Working on the motor - trans , and top chop . This will be a shelf model only .

Thanks for looking in , Jeff .

Nice! The wheels look like  modified Monogram Model A?

This weekend I got the Y block mated to the 302 auto trans and worked on the roof . Pretty happy with the stance after moving the axles up a bit . Things are looking ready for paint I guess .

Thanks again Jeff .

After three rounds of detail work , sanding and priming the body is ready for color . I found another pic of the car that shows a LS with old valve covers , no thanks . Still thinking about the injection manifold as the intake ports are in vertical pairs .

Excellent job on the chop.

[Mr. Metallic]

Man, those wheels and tires are sweet. And that chop is really nicely done. I'm following

I'm still working on the 32 , flat out strange for me . The green AS- 21 is done with Wet Look . I don't see any blue tint in it though . But it probably matches 1-1 car better . Hope to rolling stock under her this weekend . 

Have fun Jeff .

[Modlbldr]

Nice color.

[geewhiz]

[Kit Karson]

[jeff f]

[Impalow]

Well.. thats just purdy....   great work jeff!

[Draggon]

This is the singular exception to my #1 rule that big-wheel 32's do not look right. I really dig this. The 3/4 rear shot is outstanding!

[Phildaupho]

Very impressive chop job. Putting that extra piece in really helped. You also did a great job blending it in and making it disappear.

[Joca]

Oh my...this is cool...very nice...!!!

[jeff f]

Thanks guys Glenn theres a 32 that pre dates this one . google Dave Lane at Fastlane rod shop and check out his builds , the dark yellow one . You will be inspired .
