'29 Ford roadster street rod [AMT/Revell kitbash]

[Can-Con]

Why "street rod" and not "hot rod"?

Well, because this came out more of a '70s boulevard cruiser then hot rod.

AMT body, fenders etc. with Revell chassis and most of the interior. A dual quad " '69 Z-28 302" was assembled from the parts box .

Paint is Tamiya black spray and dull coated HOK snow white pearl on the upholstery. Details with Testors bottle paints.

Classy build with lots of details and shine. Love the stance as well as the wheel/ tire selection for this one.

Definitely one fine looking street cruiser. Beautiful paint work and those wire wheels really look good. Beautiful piece of work.

That is a really nice looking Roadster Steve! It has a look that's timeless! It's too bad Revell didn't see fit to engineer their kit so that it could have a hood and fenders. They really make this model!

Great kit bash, I had wondered if the underpinnings from Revell would work with an amt body and fenders.

It takes some cutt'n and grind'n and re-engineering,  they don't want to play well together. But that's what hotrodding's about, right?

Well put!

Beautifully done, the wire wheels and white exhaust manifolds do put it in the '70's. Great looking paint and cleanly detailed.

Thanks everyone. Just wish my pics were better for you. 

I think my old Canon may have been dropped one too many times. ?

Great looking Model A Steve….nice job getting the Revell chassis under the AMT fenders.  The stance and wheel n tire choice really make this one stand out.

Beautiful Roadster!
