Greetings,

Here is my attempt of the Revell '32 5-Window Coupe kit. The kit is very nice. However there were times where I wanted to pull my hair out even though I'm bald. I don't blame the kit I blame my OCD and not knowing much about these types of vehicles.  I started of by cutting the roof panel out. I cut and bent the frame in the back so that it matches the contour of the body. I slightly narrowed the wheel width on front and wheels. I made my own and added spark plug wires. The color I went with is Splash Paints golden yellow. I'm sure the car is far from representing the original but this is my version of it and I would be proud having it in my garage. Thank you for looking and please feel free to give me constructive criticism.

Very nice! I like the way the hub caps, trim rings and valve covers are done with matching paint. What paint did you use on the seat?

Thank you Sir. I used Splash Paints dark oak.

Beautiful looking paint work, you can even see the reflection from your counter in the paint. I'm a big fan of the pin striping as it reminds me of a much better time in the world. Very cleanly assembled and the interior is nicely done also.

Thank you Sir. I love the striping on these cars and I would have to agree with you about better times.
