Lyle Willits Posted February 18, 2011 Share Posted February 18, 2011 (edited) AMT Phantom Vickie cowl grafted to a Revell roadster body and channeled over the frame. Phantom Vickie chassis with AMT Wagonrod LT5 engine and wheels. Interior parts from all 3 kits. A few odds and ends and a couple of scratchbuilt parts. Paint is Duplicolor silver with LOTS of Tamiya clear (because the hobby shop was out of Testors Wet Look Clear ) I didn't realize I screwed up and made the pictures disappear. Here they are.

Greg Pugh Posted February 19, 2011 Share Posted February 19, 2011 Great build Lyle. I'm a big fan of your work. Looks like the ladies are too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lyle Willits Posted February 21, 2011 Author Share Posted February 21, 2011 Thanks for the nice comments. Somehow, I screwed up and didn't know that the pictures were gone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James2 Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 Spare Parts! What a great project. From the stance to all of the body mods, the interior and the slight chassis changes. I like it. Re-scribing the panels and the tail lights caught my eye first, along with the color. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
93Z34 Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 Absolutely gorgeous looking '32. The color and flames really pop to get your attention and then everything else just falls into place. Definitely a head turning rod, that's for sure. Sometimes the parts box builds surpass anything you can find in a kit and this is a prime example of that concept. Fantastic work!!!
