model T bucket

[doomcrew]

hello. ok,this is the revell model T, the one with the trailer. it was going to be a fad T with a tall roof and earlier grill, but the screen frame broke and decided to do something different. i blended the pick-up bed with the body and scratchbuilt new screen posts, the screen just fits in without the use of any glue. a new floor pan was made to cover the interior bucket. the engine is from a pontiac catalina with various turned ally parts, including the rear wheel rims (centres are r & d unique), front discs and dif cover. front wheels are from machine aluminium specialties via scale dreams, pulleys are parts by parks, bolts from r b motion but i'm not sure where the rear shocks are from. paint is candy cherry over pear yellow metallic.

thanks for tuning in.

motivation comes from a pontiac catalina engine and to do something a little different.
