'39 Ford 3-W

[Plowboy]

Revell kit converted to a three window, chopped three scale inches and sectioned three scale inches. Louvers added to the hood and fenders. Engine is from the '29 roadster. Wheels are Pegasus. Tires are Revell Firestones up front with AMT Parts Packs on the rear. Paint is Tamiya Maroon and Model Masters Wimbledon White. 

Thanx for checking it out!

Beautiful 39. Well built. 

[Richard Bartrop]

That turned out nice.  I do like that early 60s look.

OUTSTANDING!!

[Koellefornia Kid]

Great bodywork, nice and smooth paint job and lots of style! An awesome coupe!

[Foxer]

The body mods are so well done this looks like it could have been stock!

Awesome build !!! Dam I love the color it looks like it just came out of the pages of a 60's Hot Rod magazine very very nice.!!

Wow, that is laser sharp! I really like the crispness of the paint separation at the firewall - that must have been quite a trick.  This is one very swoopy rod, era perfect and yet with a body style that wouldn't have been thought of yet.  Love it!

Cheers

Gorgeous build.

Wow! This is one of the finest early-Ford customs that I have ever seen. The multiple alterations that you did to that body make it sing... awesome build!

[Classicgas]

Very nicely done.

[Modelbuilder Mark]

That is a great looking ride! Nice job on the section, it looks really slick.

Very few people attempt sectioning a body these days but the results are more than worth the effort as you've proven with this beauty !  Excellent work !

I’ll admit that I don’t know a lot about this style of build but I do know a beautiful model when I see one and I’m looking at one right here.  Very nice!

[Peter Lombardo]

well done all around, body mod's, paint and finish, all excellent..... If I had to question any part of the build, I am not sure I like the exhaust outlet .... but that sure is a minor point.  The under hood detail is so clean and well done and the wheels set it off nicely.   Very cool period custom.

Home run!

This build ticks a lot of boxes for me- a nice period build using era correct parts, great color combo, well finished, with a great overall look. Nicely done.

[fivesuns]

Beautiful.  I love the wheel treatment and the rubber around the glass looks so real.

I like the '50's style custom. The body work is seamless and all of the body lines flow smoothly. Great paint work. I also like how you resisted going wild with the channel and chop.

Hi!

Great built, tremendous paint finish. This is what we would call "dripping wet" gloss. Bravo!

Ya, you knocked this out of the park, stunning build.

Thanx! No trick. The firewall is a separate piece.

Thanx! This section was easy. Virtually no body work involved. The interior was kind of a pain. But, not bad.
