JollySipper Posted February 27, 2021 Posted February 27, 2021 Hello, Guys.... While I'm waiting to get some paint for the Porsche, I'm fiddling with this little kit. This is an older issue, not sure which one. I had started another one of these some time back, but didn't like how it was going, so I boxed it up. I recently got this kit from a member here and kinda got a second chance with it........ The shortened bed and hood with the sides removed are from the first attempt. The cab was made into a roadster. Plan is to use the T-Bird engine. Paint will hopefully be bronze to go with the orange wheels..... So that's what I've been up to! Please feel free to comment and thanks for looking.........
JollySipper Posted February 27, 2021 Author Posted February 27, 2021 I was looking at reference pics online, and realized that the '34 roadster pickup had a windshield frame that was separate from the body, so I removed the rest of the frame....
alan barton Posted February 28, 2021 Posted February 28, 2021 TJ, if I could respectively make a suggestion, when you chose a windshield frame to use, maybe reworking an AMT or Monogram roadster one, or even a Monogram 30 A tourer, it will look so much nicer if it is laid back just a touch - a couple of degrees off vertical will look a lot nicer than straight up like a farm gate. Pretty much the only Fords with vertical windshields were Model T's but a lot of modellers stand them all up straight. Cheers Alan
