"39 Ford Sedan

Don't know why but I just like the humpy shape. AMT Millennium kit box stock.

Hope you like 'em too.

That works! A real sleeper there, and right on-trend!

I too have a black one, but with red steels and white walls and the look is completely different!  I have also tackled an Aussie 39 sloper but getting the rear window correct is a challenge.

Cheers

Nice clean built, just lovely!

Nice work.  The thin white wall tires look good on this build.

Looks very good to me.

Beautifully done black paint job. They hid no secrets. Having owned a 1:1 '46 Ford sedan many years ago I appreciate their body shapes as well. Lots of back seat leg room. Might think about a black wash on the grill to bring out the grill details. All the trim, lights, and bumpers look great.

Very nice Brian.   That black paint job looks great.   If I may ask, what was you paint system.   Doing a black paint job soon.

[oldscool]

Looks just right.

Thanks for the good comments

I did do a black wash on the grill but for some reason it hasn't shown up on the photos. Too much reflection from the chrome maybe. Paint was Tamiya rattle can grey primer with 2 coats of gloss black then a polish with Tamiya polishing compound. Making sure the body is smooth and clean seems to be the main thing.

That is one nice looking 39 Ford.  Love the old fat fender cars.

[happy grumpy]

A great looking 40. Long live the fat fenders!
