NOBLNG Posted April 1 Posted April 1 (edited) This is the Revell ‘31 Model A Sedan kit with a few modifications.🙄 Paint is Tamiya XF-71 Cockpit Green with Vallejo Jade Green accents and Mr. Hobby Premium gloss topcoat . The engine is from the AMT ‘51 BelAir kit with the Fisher 12 port head option. I had a lot of fun building it…build thread here: https://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/topic/196266-revell-‘31-model-a-sedan/ Edited April 2 by NOBLNG Update pics 25
happy grumpy Posted April 1 Posted April 1 Really nice rod. A lot of love in that build. Great work. 1
espo Posted April 1 Posted April 1 Following your build, I like how you chopped the top and blended the taillights and other body features together. The detailing on the engine, one not usually seen in this type of build, is an eye catcher. Smooth paint finish and the two-tone paint treatment compliments the body lines. Like the contrast between your build and the box art. 1
Watertown Posted April 1 Posted April 1 Beautiful work! Clean and tidy, and packs a ton of visual impact. Well done! 1
Zippi Posted April 1 Posted April 1 Dang Greg...that's a really kewl looking Hot Rod. I'm diggin the Fisher 12 port head option. What a drastic change from the stock kit. Just a bodacious looking ride dude. 1
Jay Whittaker Posted April 2 Posted April 2 I’m loving everything about this lil hotrod! You knocked it outta the park! 1
dino246gt Posted April 2 Posted April 2 Man that's a cool build, 6 banger and all! Love all the mods and super details, excellent! 1
Bainford Posted April 2 Posted April 2 Lovely work, Greg. That's one of the coolest rods I've seen on the forum. Really loving the inline six. Great colours, great stance, great style. Excellent stuff. 1
Ragtop Man Posted April 2 Posted April 2 Checks every box! Looks awesome. On top of it all, a great build of a fiddly kit!
ea0863 Posted April 2 Posted April 2 Man Greg, I LOVE this build! The concept, proportions, stance and level of detail are awesome! Next time though, see if you can include part numbers on the radiator hoses too! 1

It was a challenge with all the modifications, but probably not as frustrating as trying to get all those door and hood hinges working on a stock build.🤯 I actually got two of these kits and the other one had a decal sheet in it.🙂 So I added the ford emblem on the grill shell and updated the photos. Here’s my original inspiration photo. 4
Rattlecan Dan Posted April 3 Posted April 3 You did a super-nice job on that build. Kind of a sophisticated Rat Rod. Very nice. 1
