1932 ford street rod

[Bronzekeg]

I'll be working on this kit next. plans call for turquoise paint with whitewall tires. it'll be fenderless with a cream interior and chrysler engine. c&c welcome as usual and thanks for looking.

Cool. Are you going to use bias ply tires? I think they look better than the kit supplied radials and they are more period corect to the 60s.

HI boys are cool.

Looking forward to more pix!

That's going to be a nice little Hot Rod. 

[slusher]

I’m looking forward too the build!

[Flatout]

Sounds good Ken…based on your other Rod builds I’m looking forward to seeing what you do this time.

yes, the rears are going to be pie crust slicks from the parts pack and the fronts are from the 29 roadster kit.

thanks Pete, it should be fun.

the paint I'm using are lacquers. testors tropical turquoise and wet look clear, and tamiya clear blue. out of the can the testors turquoise is too green for my taste so I'm going to give it a coat of clear blue to have it lean more towards the blue range. the spoon shows the color painted this way. thanks all for the input and comments. also pictured are the tires that I'm going to use.

The color combination sounded a little strange at first, but the spoon proves just how good it looks.

I got paint on the body and chassis. while it dries I started painting other parts.

[Zippi]

That's a good looking color on the body Ken.  What did you paint the exhaust pipes with?
