I told myself I was done building 1940 Ford's no matter who made them since I had built plenty,well I recently picked up a Monogram 40 pickup from the 60s for some parts for another project so I picked up a later unbuilt version to use for parts to fix it and then I done some trading to get another 60s 40.  Looking through that big stash of parts I picked up earlier this year I found two savable AMT 40 coupe bodies so I am putting them back together and then I still have that AMT 40 sedan I want to build like what's on the box.  Since I am on a roll with the 40s I will just finish all of them and then go on to the rest of my projects,never say never because it will always haunt you.

A part of me says I will never build the same kit twice.  But I know it’s total bs.  I’ve built like three or four Monogram ‘69 Z28s.  But I’ll “never” build it again.

So anyway , let me tell you my plans for the next Monogram ‘69 Camaro I’m bench racing.

I have a feeling most of us are in this situation and it's probably not a bad thing,on my post of the latest 40 I am building someone shown a picture of his version of a race car and I do have some that are not worth rebuilding that would make excellent dirt track cars so it's never going to end.

I said I would not buy or trade for anymore vintage Amt 39/40 fords… sigh I just bought 7 more tonight. This after I sold off or traded away the 12 I had previously. I had only kept one first release 39 Tudor sedan.

I am going to try to not build any more 40s after this batch I have but who knows what will.happen years down the road.  Now if someone would make a 40 woody kit then I would definitely need to get a couple.

I have to go look... I have a bunch of '40 Ford kits. AMT, many. I know I have a Lindberg and a few Revell ones. I prefer the AMT ones over any of them. I have one started as a box-art blue one from the OG box top.

Hopefully my last AMT 40 for awhile will be a sedan built like the one on the early 60s box,I found some paint that should match and I hope no more 40 kits come my way.  It's time to build anything different.
