I finally got one of these recently.  I love these revell hot rod kits.  This, the roaster, and the 32s.  I could probably just build those for the rest of my days and be fine.  

This is mine.  Box stock except wheels and tires.  The wheels have been in my stash forever.  Not sure where they came from.  The tires are PPP?  Might be part of 2 sets?  

I'm still thinking about putting some Nerf bars on the sides and front like an old modified.  I have some from the recent modified kits.  

Now I need one of these to build as a shiny car...

I couldn't agree more.  I have just recently been smitten with building some Hot Rods and these kits fit the bill.

Very nicely done. Just like Lay's - you just can't eat ( build ;) ) one.

cheers, Graham

Here's a few more of my hot rod builds.  The 31 sedan is built on the 29 roadster kit.  The flamed 34 and stock 32 are a diecasts.  The blue flame 32 is a Testors diecast kit

Nice build. Where did you get the bomber seats?

The bomber seats are in the kit with skeleton door frames as well.  Look up Tim Boyd's articles on this one.  I need more of this kit for those seats.  I can build the kit with the other finished interior.  I have a stack of leftover frames from this and the 29 kit.

I also like these kits, and love your rendition. The tires and rims definitely give your build a track-car look, so nerf bars seem like a natural.

Looks great Randy! Wheels come from the AMT '64 Ford Modified Stocker.

I had a Falcon mod stocker, so that's probably where these came from.  I used the body for a slot car.  

Thanks for the compliments, everyone

Yep, Falcon had them too! Should have checked mine. I recognized them, but the 1964 Ford Galaxie popped up first.
