Misha Posted December 25, 2020 Posted December 25, 2020 Welcome to the forum Bil! It’s great to see some more details of your builds and projects. Sure you’ll enjoy your time spent here. Cheers from the Island, Misha
NOBLNG Posted December 25, 2020 Posted December 25, 2020 Welcome to the forums. Nice start on these. That roof joint on the ‘36 is a PITA. I mixed up some sprue glue to strengthen the joint and blend it on mine. Here’s some more inspiration. http://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/topic/150783-amt-‘36-ford-coupe/

espo Posted December 25, 2020 Posted December 25, 2020 Great job smoothing the bodies around the door openings. I also like the '36 Ford and as mentioned there is issues with the roof. The other area on that one that is a little tricky is the Grill. Getting the two piece Hood and the Fenders to all come together can be a challenge. The Blown Hemi Engine in the '32 Five Window has the duel Carburetors but they look like two small two barrels. Usually they would have a little more Carburetion than that. I like how you're cleaning up the Frame rails.

Thank you, the carbs on the blown hemi will most likely be replaced with twin 4’s or fuel injectors.
Bullybeef Posted December 25, 2020 Author Posted December 25, 2020 Did a little more work on the 31 and mounted the doors to the hinges, darn fiddly little bits, decided against the Kelsey Hayes wheels and will use 40 Ford steels instead.
chris chabre Posted December 25, 2020 Posted December 25, 2020 (edited) the model A sedan is my friend Derek. He owns Allstar Hot rods here in CT in fact, the 36 was owned by my friend Doug..and Derek painted it haha Edited December 25, 2020 by chris chabre
Beamerman Posted December 27, 2020 Posted December 27, 2020 Grat work...i love the old style rods...the 36 will be amazing..
Paul Payne Posted December 27, 2020 Posted December 27, 2020 Great to see rods built from salvage- just like the full size ones!
