bbowser Posted November 2, 2019 Share Posted November 2, 2019 My latest completion. The MPC kit is remarkably good for its age but these cars are pretty spindly. I had issues with the rumble seat so I glued it shut, the hood in particular is supposed to fold like a real one but is very fragile in practice. It shares the running gear with the 1928 Touring. Comments welcome, thanks for looking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'70 Grande Posted November 2, 2019 Share Posted November 2, 2019 Stunning build of a classic! Your paintwork and color choices are outstanding! It's a shame more of these classic cars don't get built in model-form... they are such beautiful cars! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

larman Posted November 2, 2019 Share Posted November 2, 2019 Very nice build. I like all the old classic kits. It certainly was a high point for style in those days. Love your color choices and attention to detail! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric Macleod Posted November 3, 2019 Share Posted November 3, 2019 I agree with the others. You have really captured how these cars are supposed to look when they are built the right way. Your color choices are very era appropriate. Nice model all around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nells250 Posted November 9, 2019 Share Posted November 9, 2019 Nifty topic! I was just about to offer a detailing suggestion (paint the inside of the convertible top a different shade) when I saw the 1:1 photos... another fact to file in my brain for future use!!!
