'32 Ford Roadster.......there can never be too many, right?


Recommended Posts

The Revell '32 Ford Roadster.  Painted Testors Wet Look Graphite Dust and cleared with Testors Wet Look Clear.  The blower got a light coat of Tamiya Titanium Gold followed by a coat of Tamiya Smoke.  The wheels, headlight/front shock assemblies, exhaust headers, windshield, and air cleaners all got a coat of Tamiya x-19 Smoke over the chrome.  Wired distributor from Greg's Scale models and I even wired in the correct firing order!:)  Seat and door cards are Tamiya XF-82 Ocean Grey 2 and Tamiya XF-24 Dark Grey for a two tone interior.  Radiator support rods cut from piano wire.  

A fun build. I have another in the stash which I'm imagining as a dry lakes/salt flats racer; we'll see how that idea develops.

Nice work - that shade is not easy to make look nice.  And no, there can never be too many - as much as I am a Model A guy because I own own, those 32s are so pretty!

What a good looking 32 Ford Roadster there Andrew.  Boy I really like the colors on this build.  Love those front frenders.  I have this kit somewhere in the stash.

Never enough duece's.. I like a squared off windshield instead of a Duvall. But that is simply a matter of preference. Unassuming paint choice allows it to blend a bit in a sea of reds and bright primary or candy colors.

I dig it.
