In keeping with the custom theme thought my 40 Ford needed tuck and roll interior. I took the stock seat and did this.I cut out the areas with my dremel and cleaned them up a bit

Then I took some plastic tubing and did this. Hoping to get both sides done tonight. Then i will start on the doors and the rest of the interior

great idea and thanks fer shareing. Well got my front end modified allittle. Took a 53 ford grill pan(thing that goes behid the grill). Cut of the 2 plates and then molded them into the front just made my opening alittle biger. Started putting it up just need to finish it up maybe tomorrow or day after. Got my rear fenders primed. Probably will make my tutorial on my hydrolic suspension while i build them for the rear tomorrow. Man i realy want to see the finished interior of that 40. Well figured out the classes. Goan be what rollin sugested. A 59 and older class and 60 to present class.

Looking good Cal! Great color choices. ;)

Thanks.

I thought so now that I see it done. I wasn't sure how it was going to turn out when I started.

It is a kind of a weird combination of colors.

Tamiya White primer

Testors US Aircraft Intermediate Blue

Testors Aluminum Metalizer

Testors Pontiac Engine Blue for the metal trim: along tops of the doors, bottom of the dash and seat base.

BMF

Just need to finish up the chassis, build the engine and put the finial trim work on. ;)

I built it completely assbackwards... ;)

its turned out to my week went belly side up and turned into the nightmare i thought it might (looks like i might be getting sued maybe). but i did chop the roof off the 37 today and on making it from the 5 window in to a 3 window but im doing it right and not just cutting out the pillar between the windows. im taking pictures of the whole thing just havent had time to put them upload them. its all good though and the cars goin smooth unlike some other stuff right now

Instructions. :blink: I don't even know where they are much less have looked at them. :P But I am sure it begins ... Step 1 build the engine, which I haven't even started yet, and the rest of the model is nearly done. :o:o

Hope I didn't forget something important.... :P

Anytime Florian.

I had to dig pretty hard to find those pics. I know several of the body manufacturers did utilize Chevy chassis for their budget line ambulances and hearses.

If you can find a book called American Funeral Cars and Ambulances by Crestline Publishing it's well worth the purchase price.
