Lyle Willits Posted July 28, 2011 Posted July 28, 2011 This thing fought me all the way. Tim Boyd made this version of this kit look easy in S.A.#108, but it seems like I had to scratch build or modify almost everything. Testors Root Beer and Duplicolor Gold with a hand-painted red separation line, buried in polished Testors Wet Look Clear. Most of rear end from AMT '25 "T" kit. Reworked Revell '32 Ford louvered trunk lid. Dudek tailights. 409 from a Lindberg '61 Impala kit and some parts box stuff. Front suspension is mostly a modified front end from a Revell '32 Ford kit. Something for the 25th scale pervs among us.
High octane Posted July 28, 2011 Posted July 28, 2011 Really nice build on that old Ford, looks great!
TheCat Posted July 28, 2011 Posted July 28, 2011 WOW... Awesome build. I love everything on this one. The color and detail came out looking great!!!
crazyjim Posted July 28, 2011 Posted July 28, 2011 Nice looking hot rod. I thought we're not supposed to babes in our posts.
Sixties Sam Posted July 29, 2011 Posted July 29, 2011 Hi Lyle, not getting pics, just the image codes. Me too!

John Teresi Posted July 30, 2011 Posted July 30, 2011 Lyle......this is absolutely stunning......very nice.
David@MinidreamsInc. Posted July 30, 2011 Posted July 30, 2011 man i kinda of like this with the paint scheme and that 409 i bet it would be a screamer in 1:1
Sixties Sam Posted July 31, 2011 Posted July 31, 2011 Very nice classic hot rod. Great colors and workmanship! Sam
Chuck Most Posted July 31, 2011 Posted July 31, 2011 Love it! Must ask- where did those wheels come from?
bsoder Posted July 31, 2011 Posted July 31, 2011 ? What does that mean? Think he's referring to the 1/25 "babe" anyways I really like this one Lyle, I'm a real fan of root beer brn!
kenb Posted July 31, 2011 Posted July 31, 2011 Looks awesome. I'd like to get a set of those wheels as well, where did they come from? Ken
