oldscool Posted December 10, 2009 Posted December 10, 2009 (edited) Have since painted the taillight lenses and added a license plate frame from the Revell 49 Merc. I know this started as a Revell 32 Ford thread but several others have posted AMTs so here's mine. Haven't built any of my Revell 32s yet. oldscool Edited December 10, 2009 by oldscool
cruz Posted December 10, 2009 Posted December 10, 2009 I don't even remember when I did this one, probably 6 or 7 years ago??? Hosted on Fotki
Jantrix Posted December 10, 2009 Posted December 10, 2009 here one of my 32 ford when i frist started I love this! This reminds me of all the CarToons inspired models I built as a teen. Always keep this model. Don't throw it away or rebuild it. It will show you where you came from and how far you have come. I have something similar in my collection and it never fails to put a smile on my face. Maybe I'll build another one.
John E. Bowers Jr. Posted December 11, 2009 Posted December 11, 2009 "32 Fords,,,,,,let's see now,,,,,,'32 Fords. Nah, I don't think I have any. None? Are you sure? I think that I've seen one or....seventeen on the tables around here with your name associated with it/them... Tell the truth!
Matt21726 Posted December 11, 2009 Posted December 11, 2009 (edited) First of all Welcome !!! Your gonna love this place . That 32' is nice, is that the mustang engine in it ? It is the engine that comes with the kit. Here is a better shot of the engine Edited December 11, 2009 by Matt21726
Lyle Willits Posted December 11, 2009 Posted December 11, 2009 I just spent 20 minutes posting one picture, each, of the '32 Fords I've built,,,,,only to find out that they won't post because there are too many. Screw it. If you want to see them, go here: http://public.fotki.com/mamaprez/lyles_mod...rd_street_rods/
Bobdude Posted December 11, 2009 Posted December 11, 2009 Lyle,You've got a whole lot of nice '32's there.I'm going to have to buy 28 more various kits just to keep up with you.Bob
seeker589 Posted December 11, 2009 Posted December 11, 2009 Dave - Every one of those Dueces has the RIGHT look - but every one is different. Very nice!
RatRod Posted December 11, 2009 Posted December 11, 2009 Built these two a year or so before the new Revell kits hit the shelves. Both were done using the Monogram kits. I've built several Revell 3 windows, and all have takin' up residency in other collections, and this is the only one I have pics of. This one was done as a more modern Hotrod look. I chopped the top, smoothed and blended the running boards to look as one piece, and bobbed the rear fenders, keeping the body line all around the lip. This was also my very first automotive lacquer paint job (I've never went back in 12+ years ) I used the wheels & tires from the Revell Prowler with detailed photo-etch "Ford" centers. The engine is from the AMT Mustang Cobra, as are the bucket seats. The headers are from the Matt & Debbie Hay T-Bird, and fit this engine swap, and frame like they were made for it!!! A couple old AMT Vickies, both are gone, but I have several more of the kits to replace them!! The last one I have pics of is the AMT Phantom Vicky, built pretty much box stock, and as a "Study in black" . I only used black paint, and colors based on black. Very minimal chrome, carbon fiber valve covers and oil pan, and a scratch built fuel injection system.
Bernard Kron Posted December 11, 2009 Posted December 11, 2009 John: Beautifully conceived and executed '32s. The 1/24 Monograms are especially impressive since there's such a large amount of work required to get them from the basic kits to your results. But they're all stunners. Two thumbs up!
vizio93 Posted December 12, 2009 Author Posted December 12, 2009 i REALLY like John's black '32 3-window street rod! that thing is awesome! i love building mine rough around the edges but full of power, wish i could do a nice street rod build but i don't think i have the vision for it. Dave Same here !!! All of his builds look good, and the same with Lyle's . I'm glad I created this thread, or else I wouldn't get to see all of these magnificent builds !!! Let's pull some more 32's in to the thread !!!
Jon Cole Posted December 12, 2009 Posted December 12, 2009 This one is from an AMT kit... And this one here I showed recently... BTW, this topic is great! I am in awe of the quality of builds. What other form of art starts out as a box of plastic?
Sixties Sam Posted December 12, 2009 Posted December 12, 2009 I agree that this is a good thread. There is some amazing skill on this forum! You guys make my stuff look pretty ordinary. Nice builds, everyone!
Ryan Quantz Posted December 12, 2009 Posted December 12, 2009 I posted this one a while ago, but I can't resist showing a miniature '32 in a '32 thread!
vizio93 Posted December 12, 2009 Author Posted December 12, 2009 Nice job on the 32's Jon and Ryan !!! Who makes that miniature 32 Ryan ?
Ryan Quantz Posted December 12, 2009 Posted December 12, 2009 Highway Miniatures makes the little '32. It has some downsides, but come on it's a 1/87th scale meant for railroad display. I still scratchbuilt quite a bit for it...

Big 'N' Grumpy Posted December 20, 2009 Posted December 20, 2009 Reminds me of the DRAG-ON-LADY ford that was on the front of the hamb poster few years back
jbwelda Posted December 20, 2009 Posted December 20, 2009 heres one jerry amaral and i built up for a give away at NNL West a few years ago. i built the V12 flathead and a lot of the chassis, and chose, no INSISTED that we use an Orange Crate body. turned out pretty super. i want to build another one for myself this time! but i would have a hard time matching jerrys superb tangerine candy paint job and graphics. whoever walked out of the NNL that day with this really got a cool model in my book! yeah ok its kind of overshadowed by the autographed big deuce but what can a guy do?
Agent G Posted December 20, 2009 Posted December 20, 2009 (edited) I've only done two 32's, I prefer the '29.
