Chris M Posted February 13, 2012 Posted February 13, 2012 (edited) Started and stopped this one a number of times waiting on inspiration and time. Started with a Revell 5 window coupe kit, chopped a bit, sliced the center out of the frame rails for a custom cross member/bracing. Model A rear cross member, Quick change with ladder bars/model A spring, Revell parts pack Caddi, with the four singles intake. Body has been painted my take on Washington Blue.

DumpyDan Posted February 13, 2012 Posted February 13, 2012 Looks cool, what did you use to make the custom cross member/bracing. Now lets see the painted body?
Chris M Posted February 13, 2012 Author Posted February 13, 2012 I used .062" solder with gap filling CA glue for the chassis crossmember. Body is gassing out in a cabinet. Pics to follow. Thanks for looking.
Chris M Posted February 17, 2012 Author Posted February 17, 2012 I pulled the body out of the cabinet for a quick peek and couldn't resist a mockup. Paint isn't nearly as smooth as I had hoped.
Chris M Posted February 28, 2012 Author Posted February 28, 2012 A little more progress this weekend. Thanks for looking!
Dr. Cranky Posted February 28, 2012 Posted February 28, 2012 Chris, that's one sweet ride you've go in progress there. That chassis is fantastic. Very cool. It's almost finished too.
1zebra3 Posted February 28, 2012 Posted February 28, 2012 Chris thats a great looking 32. Iv'e got to get one done someday.
Chris M Posted February 28, 2012 Author Posted February 28, 2012 Thanks Doc. Thank you also Matt, I challenged myself to finish at least a half dozen old Henry fords for the year. This will be number one, a '32 roadster is on deck, followed closely by a "T" bucket with another custom frame.
