Revell ford model A flatz rat rod

[Nick s]

Calling this one done..........One mistake is the windshield frame.  It was so warped that  it was unusable.  I should have glued it in place before painting the body.  I was forced to think of other options but in the end the only thing I could think of was a frameless windshield.  The second mistake is the painting flaw on the seat.  I ended up covering it with the seatbelt.  Great kit I will be building more of these kits.

Great looking build, and the seat belt idea makes a nice save. Like the deep channeled body look and the engine detailing. You had mentioned the windshield frame issue. Should it bother you, maybe a couple of thin U Channel plastic or brass that would slide on either side of the windshield. Some sort of chrome treatment would be a consideration. Either way it looks great as is.

I think you recovered it nicely. Along with that David said, you might be able to salvage the uprights from the warped frame even you need to shorten them a little.

I'm really digging on this! May I ask.... Did you Zee the frame yourself, or is it an aftermarket piece? Also, are you in NC? I've been to Hillsboro, did some paint work up there...
