32 Ford Street Rod

Recommended Posts

I combined 2 kits to build this one. I used the wheels, tires, front and rear suspension/rear end and the 392 Hemi engine from the Revell 5 window coupe. The rest is the Monogram 32 Ford Classic Cruiser kit. It took a little modification to make the suspension work and to get the stance where I wanted. I had to also modify the trans on the Hemi to get it to sit right in the frame. I scratch built the exhaust system and the driveshaft. The exterior paint, engine, and frame is Tamiya X-13 metallic blue acrylic. The interior is Tamiya XF-17 Sea Blue, which looks almost black except in certain light. Had fun with this one and I think it came out ok. All comments welcome, thanks for looking.

Good looking Street Rod. Those Monogram kits provide a great starting point for  Deuce Roadster build.

Thanks.
