bill-e-boy Posted June 12, 2023 Posted June 12, 2023 I started this way back in 1997 when the Revell 32 3 window coupe was first released. I painted it white and was intending to do some graphics but then it got parked up. I dug it out a few years later and fitted an AMT parts pack 392 Hemi with the goal of a Salt Lakes street driven racer but other projects got in the way. I dug it out again late last year as a contribution to the 32's 90th anniversary. I changed the motor to a Revell 392 Hemi as some of the fitment issues would be overcome and I could speed up construction a bit. Well the usual work and life got in the way so here we are six months into 2023 The following is a short list of modifications I carried out 3" top chop Front end lowered Rear end lowered Full chassis channel job Racing interior 392 Hemi from 5W coupe The build can be seen here - Cheers Bill-e-boy 7
thatz4u Posted June 12, 2023 Posted June 12, 2023 Bill, great looking hot rod, saw the headlights, seems to have no tail lights..
Zippi Posted June 13, 2023 Posted June 13, 2023 That's a Looker right there. Love the old school Hot Rods. Very nice build of the rare 3-window Deluxe Coupe with suicide doors.
XYHARRY Posted June 13, 2023 Posted June 13, 2023 Very cool 3w coupe. Clean top chop and nice colour. Well done Bill and thanks for sharing. Cheers, David. ??
espo Posted June 13, 2023 Posted June 13, 2023 Great looking Hot Rod. Like the color and the finish. Clean looking engine and front end.
bill-e-boy Posted June 13, 2023 Author Posted June 13, 2023 Thanks for the nice comments re the missing tail lights - still looking through the spares pile for something that I will be happy with - most probably will need to scratch some up Cheers Bill-e-boy
alan barton Posted June 15, 2023 Posted June 15, 2023 Bill, that is so smoooooth! I am in awe of people who can chop vintage rooves this nicely and get all the window mouldings re-joined without hiccups! I struggle on them every time - much respect here for your skill and patience. Cheers Alan

But it still is quite a chore to get all the mouldings looking good Cheers Bill-e-boy
Rattlecan Dan Posted June 15, 2023 Posted June 15, 2023 Wow! What a clean crisp build. Subtle color and great stance. Nice job.
Phildaupho Posted June 16, 2023 Posted June 16, 2023 Very well done chop and channeling with a great stance
