happy grumpy Posted January 5, 2023 Share Posted January 5, 2023 Not a 100% conversion but from the exterior, it’s convincing enough. From photos found on the web I did some cosmetic work to convert the AMT kit to a four-door sedan. From what I saw from the pictures, there seems to be very little difference between the 2 and four doors from the profile of the car so I just sanded the door lines and re-scribed new ones and moved the B pillar and added a C pillar. The last 3 photos show the 40 with a 32 Vicky. The last picture was taken in a “barn find” mood setting. Thanks for looking. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Geer Posted January 6, 2023 Share Posted January 6, 2023 Impressive work on your Forty Fordor conversion – looks straight from the factory. Great job! I’ve had the same transformation on my workbench for several years. After seeing yours I’m feeling motivated to continue the build in the hope of getting mine to turn out half as nice. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your diorama really adds to your builds Thanks Steve, I like to put my models in context, they take some time to build though being almost a hobby on their own but I enjoy doing it.
