Tub #7....this one from the sorta way back memory machine, lurking at the tail end of the resto rod era...

This model was built, if memory serves, for an early Street Rodder magazine Modeler's Corner column comparing it with the AMT '27T Touring kit pictured earlier here in this "Tub posting series". 

It was built from the Monogram "Early Iron" series kit of their 1930 Ford Phaeton. New wheels were sourced, along with a Halibrand Quick Change for the rear. The paint was, again from memory, an early 1970s GM metallic Turquoise/Teal.

I also vaguely recall this model perhaps having been inspired by a similar model David Dale built earlier in his own modeling career.....

Another beauty! As a child of the 70s, I remember so many magazine covers having this feel. Well done, as usual!
