JayVee Posted December 30, 2006 Posted December 30, 2006 Here are a couple of photos of this retro-styled '40 Ford droptop. The suspension was lowered and it rides on big 'n little steelies. The final color will be dark olive green metallic.

JayVee Posted December 31, 2006 Author Posted December 31, 2006 Awesome Jayvee, Can u tell me how u lowered the suspension. This one is super easy to lower, I just cut the rear springs and used the dropped front axle that's in the kit.

JayVee Posted January 8, 2007 Author Posted January 8, 2007 I finally got a paint job on this one (the paint gremlins were at it again). This is Fathom Green, a color in the Testor's hobby lacquer line. Later, JV
