1949 ford

[David G.]

I'm sorry to learn of the paint issue but at least it wasn't a total loss.

I'm looking forward to seeing more.

I was probably 9 or 10 when I built my 1st one. The drag version.

I had discovered that Testors made metallic paint in those little jars. I used the blue, streaky as heck but I thought it looked good.

Got this one wrapped up, now to focus on car #2(it has its own build page)

The ole Shoebox Ford turned out pretty nice.  I'm diggin the 50 Chevy pickup on the shelf pulling the U-Haul trailer.

I have 3 I did in more recent years. A black box stock I did for a contest. I may take that apart one day and upgrade it.

Then my blue gasser that made the magazine in 2022.

The last was my purple custom that has a glaring issue with the rear window fit, which also fogged with CA glue.

I see them as a blank canvas. The possibilities are endless with them.

Thank you!That truck actually has the blown caddy motor and a bunch of parts from the first '49 ford kit I did years ago

I've always liked the shoebox ford's, I had one a few years ago that was good little driver with the flathead. I wanted to turn mine into a gasser with the 468 BBC I had but it didn't pan out ha
