JTalmage Posted August 9, 2023 Share Posted August 9, 2023 Ever have a project that looms over your mind like a dark cloud, and it won't go away? This is that project. I bought it for 5 bucks at a swap meet because I wanted to build it and donate it to the Model T Museum in Richmond, IN. But it isn't my scale, and, let's be honest it's a less than great kit.... but... finally this evening I forced myself to start on it. I had intended on painting it and doing a slight amount of details on it.... but while I was trying to build it I was dealing with another issue for an event my club is participating in this weekend and it was aggravating me.... so I decided to instead slam this thing out as fast as I could completely bare bones box build not even paint. Total time about 4hr and 20min give or take some time to eat dinner and spray paint another project. Anyway, I hated it and I'll never do another one... but, it doesn't look all that bad finished. Also, this thing is right hand drive... weird! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XYHARRY Posted August 9, 2023 Share Posted August 9, 2023 It actually looks better than the box art example. Well done Jesse, considering it only took you a short time to throw it together. Cheers, David. 😎👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bill-e-boy Posted August 12, 2023 Share Posted August 12, 2023 Lookin good - we had them right hook down this end of the world (NZ) as we are a RH drive country. Ours came from Canada which is part of the British Commonwealth. I can remember seeing two T chassis being tipped into a small gully when I was growing up on the family farm and then being back filled as a crossing for said gully. Apparently my grandfather was into Model T's but my dad liked more modern stuff - Model A's LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
