It's a Duesy!

Old build. Not sure which kit, Monogram maybe? Built box stock. Whitewalls are yellowed from age, but paint has held up well.

Yep Monograms kit. Nice. Just pop out the white walls and paint them.

I say leave whitewalls, that's the way the would realistically yellow in 1:1 scale over time.

Great looking big rig of a car. I agree with stevez on the white wall tires. The yellowing was a common problem in that era. You could not replicate that finish if you were trying to. You got it the same way they did back in the day, that's just the way they aged.

I agree beautiful !!

It is a Monogram Kit . The Yellowing is from the color of the plastic . IIRC , Monogram create this formula to best reproduce the de-rigor '30's Whitewalls .  It looks like the Whitewalls of the day . Green is my favorite Color . It's a Duesy .. I like this .. Nice and beautiful replica . With the Grille Gaps I believe this is a first run release .  Thanx ..

Sharp car. Working the same right now. Hope it looks this good!

Its a real beauty, I would leave the whitewalls

[ismaelg]

Classic beauty! 

I always thought about a blind intersection. By the time the driver can take a look if there is oncoming traffic, half the car is already blocking the road

A fine build of a real classic.

 I agree with some of the previous comments. Leave the white walls alone. They look good like that.

Lovely.

Thanks for all the comments! I remember way back when I was building this that I was impressed with the snap-in plastic whitewalls thinking they would not yellow. Guess I was wrong. However, as many have mentioned, they actually look correct now particularly for the subject time period. They will stay as-is.
