1930fordpickup Posted November 26, 2017 Posted November 26, 2017 How did I miss this. Looks great. Not a fan of the custom work myself but for some reason I like this hard to find kit.
TooOld Posted November 26, 2017 Posted November 26, 2017 Beautifully done ! The wheel and tire swap really makes a difference , great job !
unclescott58 Posted November 26, 2017 Posted November 26, 2017 I love it. I do wish Round 2 could, or would bring this kit back.

I do too as your build just oozes late 50's. Great job. I need another kit like I need another hole in my head, however I could be persuaded to get one and hopefully build it as well.
Phildaupho Posted December 9, 2017 Posted December 9, 2017 It is really great to see such a fabulous build of this venerable Deuce. I wonder if those in the know have any knowledge if there is a possibility that Round 2 could do a reissue. I am hoping so as it looks like if combined with a chopped 3-window Coupe you could build a close replica of the album cover Chili Catallo Little Deuce Coupe.
Mr. Metallic Posted December 13, 2017 Posted December 13, 2017 Mike, gotta say it again, this thing is stellar. What you did with a simple wheel and tire swap and a little detailing just makes this thing sooooo cool. So cool in fact, that it inspired me to build something similar. I had this idea rattling around in my head for awhile, but your build tripped my trigger, so to speak.
Pete L. Posted December 17, 2017 Posted December 17, 2017 Great job on the restoration, super color choice, and what a difference those Monogram wheels/tires make ! Thanks for sharing !
alan barton Posted January 9, 2019 Posted January 9, 2019 I'm kinda late to the party but wow, this is a stunner, Mike. As I am now in the process of building the same model form leftover parts, your photos are also a great reference source as well. You also have me seriously re-considering my choice of wheels! And Craig, love that Vicky! That was my plan (B) until I got a very generous offer that I will reveal in my thread when it arrives here in Australia. Cheers Alan
Red318 Posted January 10, 2019 Posted January 10, 2019 I'm not normally a fan of this style but that looks great, especially being a resto. Well done.
SoDak1 Posted January 10, 2019 Posted January 10, 2019 I think I have a set of those headers in the parts box and always wondered what kit they came from..... Very cool rod, I really like the fender flares
tim boyd Posted January 12, 2019 Posted January 12, 2019 (edited) Mike....your tweaks do so much to increase the appeal of the model, which otherwise is one of AMT's best efforts from that era. Congrats....TIM Edited January 12, 2019 by tim boyd
