1937 Ford Pickup

[NOBLNG]

I got this one at a flea market and started it to get myself motivated after a summer of next to no building. It is a nice little kit. Pretty much a box stock build except for the tailgate chains, tail lights and cowl vent.

That looks really nice.

Looks really nice Greg.  Love the colors.  Reminds me of the 1:1 37 Ford pickup I had.  

[ChrisR]

Very nice!!

Beautiful looking paint and finish. Always like seeing some of the older cars and trucks built in a show room theme.

This came out very nice Greg.

Cool.  I've been thinking of getting the kit and now I really want one.

[NOBLNG]

Thanks Everyone! It is a very nice kit and was fun to build.

[Classicgas]

Excellent.

Really nice build there Gregg. The green with the black fenders are perfect on it.?

[happy grumpy]

Great build and color choice Greg . I love those fat fenders of that period. The dark green is perfect for it. You are right , that a great kit . Having a nice background adds up to realism.

Not only it looks good, it looks right.

[Olskoolrodder]

Nicely done, it looks 1:1/real!  

[thatz4u]

well done...

[NOBLNG]

Thanks Guys! The picture on the box looked good, so I pretty much copied it.  I didn’t trust myself to use the decals though.?

Another great build Greg. I always enjoy your WIP’s and love all the tips and tricks you share. Your contributions to this forum are much appreciated.

Cheers, Steve

That came out very nice!  The details you added are noticeable, I need to try the cowl vent sometime.  Have the kit in my stash.  ?

Very nicely done. I'm not a Ford guy, but you can't deny old trucks, regardless of brand, are always cool.

Thanks Steve. I get a lot of tips from this forum, so if I think of something that could be useful to someone, I like to return the favor.

Thanks Kurt. I like to add little items that add to the realism or set it apart from box stock.

Thanks Jeremy. Yeah, all trucks from the 30’s are nice!

Great job on this, it's perfect! These are great kits, I just wish the hood was designed different so it would open. 

[Dominik]

very nice

Looks great! I did the '37 panel truck once in almost the exact same color scheme, just not as shiny! Well done.

Really nice model Greg!         Commercials from that just pre war era make for some interesting model subjects, with plenty of scope for the imagination.
