alan barton Posted October 3, 2020 Share Posted October 3, 2020 The paint is what draws you in but then you see how nicely assembled the whole car is. I think the black grille works really well - in chrome it would have little tinselly ( is that a word?) . I have yet to buildany of the Coddington kits in my stash but this is making me think about it! Cheers Alan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve H Posted October 3, 2020 Share Posted October 3, 2020 Hi Jim, beautiful build. I agree with the others, the paint colour is perfect, as is the paint job itself. I also agree with Alan, the black grill (non tinselly) looks great. Cheers, Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Details and design are fine as-is, or you can use only the bare frame as a nice base for fat-fendered Fords, and add/scratchbuild your own suspensions.

crazyjim Posted October 3, 2020 Author Share Posted October 3, 2020 Yes Claude, the kit has many parts that can be easily swapped to other builds -chassis w/suspension, wheels/tires/ engine/trans, interior parts. Thank you Gareth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
