Lyle Willits Posted January 31, 2010 Posted January 31, 2010 Revell tudor sedan, chopped 3 inches, blown Chevy 327 from an old MPC "Night Stalker" '67 Corvette kit, small block Chevy headers from Reps & Mins, detailed DUDEK moon tank and DUDEK '54 Pontiac tailights (but I think Bob calls them "50 Pontiac lights,,,,,whatever.)
Tom Kren Posted January 31, 2010 Posted January 31, 2010 GREAT JOB!! mant that is says hot rod.what color red is that too?
Lyle Willits Posted January 31, 2010 Author Posted January 31, 2010 GREAT JOB!! mant that is says hot rod.what color red is that too? Testors Italian red and lots of clear, polished out.
Randy Kern Posted January 31, 2010 Posted January 31, 2010 Looks great, Lyle. My favorite set of wheels & tires, too. That moon tank really sets off the front end. Cool!
Alyn Posted January 31, 2010 Posted January 31, 2010 Very nice traditional look. Not overdone, but just right. Looks like your whitewalls are slightly off-white which gives them a more realistic look and blends nicely with the red.
Tony T Posted January 31, 2010 Posted January 31, 2010 Toss me the keys, and let's go for a spin!! Nice nice nice!!!
Raul_Perez Posted January 31, 2010 Posted January 31, 2010 GREAT work, Lyle!! I especially like that you got rid of that horrendous center radiator support rod. It looks like the headers were a pretty close fit, but it also looks like you didn't have to modify the steering box to get it all to fit. Later,
Marc @ MPC Motorsports Posted January 31, 2010 Posted January 31, 2010 Nothing "plain" about this one!!! Great job as always!!!
Joker Posted January 31, 2010 Posted January 31, 2010 Lyle ,great eye for detail and finish..Bravo James

Never seen a real '32 with one.
bsoder Posted February 1, 2010 Posted February 1, 2010 Well it's red and a hot rod..oh and a clean as a whistle build, what's not to like!
rustybill1960 Posted February 1, 2010 Posted February 1, 2010 Yeah right, what they say Lyle . . . Plain old red roadster, yeah great looking build man thanks for sharing
Speedster Posted February 1, 2010 Posted February 1, 2010 Great build. Super clean and a really good job with the styling.

Lyle Willits Posted February 3, 2010 Author Posted February 3, 2010 Just curious is DUDEK a aftermarket co. or a persomal friend Love that moon tank and tailights!! Thanks, Rob Both. Bob Dudek doesn't advertise anywhere. He just sells things at shows. The "word of mouth" advertising seems to be working for him.

Bobdude Posted February 3, 2010 Posted February 3, 2010 Lyle will not admit the fact that I am his brother-in-law.I am the black sheep of the family.Bob
