34 Ford Pickup

[meechum68]

So here is my view on a 30's mod styled Ford Pickup. 

This was started in my hotel, while out on the road for work, and wrapped up at the house.  I learned a few things, and I lost the stupid license plate (gonna have to raid one out of my stash somewhere) I have to give the tail light some red and it will be done. 

Currently hanging out on my computer desk after building. 

I will be making a photo shoot booth so I stop using my paint booth.

Looks great👍👍. Awesome color choices, it gives a nice contrast. Great looking hotrod you've built. This is such a versatile, fun kit to build. Nice work.

Thanks John! 

I tried to stick with the vibe of the 30's minus color choice, had to be bold. And the contrasting colors just happened to be an accident as I was shopping for paint for a plane.

Great job on this Michael. It almost seems weird to see one NOT chopped…but that’s what they were.😎 And yes, a photo back drop would be a good idea.

That's a mighty fine looking 34 Ford pickup.

Thanks! I had hoped I got the spirit of the customs back then.  And I plan on making a photo shoot box, so no more "garage-work area" pictures, unless I am in WiP.

Thank you! I am quite happy with the result, I see a few things I will improve for the next. 

I will be doing a box stock, with tow truck parts for a buddy. He has an old garage, and I will put decals on it that are from the old garage!

Cool old hot rod pick-up, Michael. Good looking colours. Where did you get the Cragars for this one?

These are the wheels I got, and I was able to get them from wesmodelcarcorner.

I need to hunt down a few more sets.
