'25 Chopped 'T' Street Rod

[gasser59]

After many years, and I mean years, of working on this and putting it back in the box because of obstacles, I'm happy to report this one is finally done. AMT body, Wild Willy engine, 'Z'ed frame, printing plate floor boards, PE aircraft-style seats from Wild Hare, plumbed, wired and almost everything else.

Comments always welcome. There's also a build thread under WIP if you want to see the process.

Beautiful rod, I like the natural metal finishes and the subtle weathering. I like this.

It was worth the effort!

[Richard Bartrop]

Looks good!  The body lends works well with the full Fad T look.

Great rendition of a classic kit which I built when it was first released over 60 years ago. Yours is infinitely better !!

Very cool build, I have yet to even start a project like this but hope to soon!

[Matt T.]

Perfect! Thanks for sticking with it. Worth your time and efforts, for sure. So cool!

You captured the look of bare metal, and great detailing on the engine. 

[PappyD340]

That's a fine looking hot rod, well done!

[Zippi]

Good looking old school Hot Rod.  Nicely done.

Very large "cool" factor! Looks like a terrifying driver, though! Worth the time you put into it. Well done.

Killer job on the details. 

[Spottedlaurel]

Well worth the effort over all those years, it looks amazing.

I thought the same thing! Quite a handful at 1:1 I'd imagine.....

Looks great!

This is very cool, Brad! It's got "it". Nice job!

Superb Brad !  Whatever obstacles you may have encountered, the end result is first class and the assembly is impeccable.  This hobby is not a race, the important thing is to cross the finish line and be satisfied with the result.  You can be proud, the attention to detail is the first impression that comes out of your work.  Well done!!! ?

I love the whole setup and stance. And I am totally jealous of how good you got the engine details!  

[echo]

Very nice looking hot rod with an attitude, excellent detailing all around.

[carrucha]

Cool hotrod.  The Hemi looks awesome.

[NOBLNG]

Really nicely done and great detailing on the engine!?

[Dennis Lacy]

That’s about as bad ass as a T Coupe can get. Looks totally WICKED! I love everything about it!

[Koellefornia Kid]

Wicked! I doubt that the driver can see anything with that big blower in front of the windshield... But who cares, it looks cool!

[slusher]

Very sharp
