jdcar32 Posted Wednesday at 12:32 AM Posted Wednesday at 12:32 AM (edited) An older build I thought I'd share. The body is a resin item of unknown origin with a visor and opened doors added. The door panels and head liner are styrene sheet with scribed pleats. The motor is a parts pack Caddy. Dash is from the '48 Merc Woodie kit. Paint is Tamiya gloss black. Frame is from one the iconic Revell duece kits. Edited Wednesday at 12:02 PM by jdcar32 13

XYHARRY Posted Wednesday at 01:47 PM Posted Wednesday at 01:47 PM Very cool old school hotrod. This is how they built them, with what ever was at hand. Great detail, I especially like your clutch, brake and throttle set-up. Really well done Jon. 1

bill-e-boy Posted Thursday at 03:46 AM Posted Thursday at 03:46 AM A superb old timey rod. There is a lot to like here and you have done a lot more work than you have said in your brief description. And all of it good too. 1

espo Posted Thursday at 04:26 PM Posted Thursday at 04:26 PM Great looking Street Rod. Like the way you did the interior and dash. The painted engine with the minimal chrome trim looks good. 1
