I built this model to participate in The Official ‘32 Tudor Sedan Build Off. 

My goal was to create a timeless modern hotrod by kit-bashing within Revell’s series of ‘32 Ford kits. The complete chassis, supercharged small block Chevy and grill/shell come from the most recent Roadster kit.  The chopped sedan body is a very high quality piece from my friend Ed at Drag City Casting, for which I created the original master. The wheels and large rear radial tires come from the original issue HiBoy Roadster while the front tires are from a Revell ‘40 Ford Coupe. The firewall, hood top, taillights and interior are from the Sedan except for the ‘40 Ford steering wheel from the 5-Window Coupe. Paint is Tamiya TS-88 Titanium Silver over their primer and under their gloss clear, polished and waxed. I’m a year late for the original end date of the build off but, better late than never!

Excellent work Dennis as always! Im glad that you could get this group build done and join with the rest of us. Dont forget to post a couple picks in the group builds finished thread. Oh and I love all that color matching on the frame and suspension components.

Beautiful paint finish and like the color. Great looking engine and chassis details. Nice stance along with the wheels & tires.

Wow! So much excellent work on one model. Mildly tinted glass is a nice touch l didn’t immediately notice. Flawless. 👍🏻
