Very classy color combo. The yellow fog lights are a great touch. In combination with the colors it adds a great deal of character to the car.

I'm liking this one Rooster.  Those colors work together really well.  That 2K clear just lays down and does a nice job over the Tamiya TS paint.  Great looking little Hot Rod.

Very cool, these early hotrods were built on teenage budgets and many were stripped down standard 'jalopys'. Your 32 really fits the bill. Well done Rooster. 

Cheers, 

David. ??

Laser Sharp Build! I really like the colours you chose, and the de-chroming works well. The Fog Lights are an inspired touch, and the paint on the engine is very well done. The complete package works well.

 

Good Show.

Thanks for the nice comments, all. It may not be period correct, but it was a fun little quicky build. I have enough spare parts to build a few more early Fords, so you just never know when one more may show up.

I really like the old school feel to this one, nice maroon paint, detailed flathead and wire wheels. This build makes me want to get a copy of this kit for myself when they arrive in Australia. Thanks for sharing this one. ??

Rad! Love the fender-less and wire wheel combo. Those larger 34 wires and tires also go well proportionally with the stock height too. Hard to go wrong with TS11 and digging the copper accents. ?

Are the fog lights simply the optional smaller headlights from the kit?

Thank Dennis, and yes they are. I just made up a pin to mount them on.

I have this one in the stash and have been debating what direction to take it in; I think you've given me some inspiration.  The wheels really add to the look of this one.  Great job!
