Tom Setzer Posted September 30, 2012 Posted September 30, 2012 I like what you hve done so far on this build!!
Ramfins59 Posted September 30, 2012 Posted September 30, 2012 Boy this must be the season for people to be working on '53 Fords... I think this is the 3rd one I've seen in progress or finished in the last few weeks... and I also happen to have started working on one about 3 weeks ago. I'm not happy with the kit engine and didn't want to create a mini project by switching to a later model Ford engine from another kit (you know how it is... you change ONE thing, and then you wind up having to change SIX other things...) I wasn't in the mood for a long project, so I'm doing a Curbside sort of mild custom... Not trying to rob your thread here Fred.... Just commenting on how many '53 Fords are in the works here.... I'll hopefully post pics of my own build soon.
fredo84 Posted September 30, 2012 Author Posted September 30, 2012 No Problem Sir !! She sit now on all 4.... Engine is in ...Fire wall not glued yet....still need the battery and the blower... On the stretch to finish the interior .... I forgot that 3 days ago i went to buy some paint and lacquer ....and i Bought a Krylon Semi-Gloss Lacquer... I thought i should spray some on the interior as for my taste it was a bit flat .... Here is the result ...much better i think .... I still haven't shot the body with color.....I will finish to wet send it later ....and maybe I will shot some paint on that body tonight .....Tamiya TS-1Red Brown...should do the trick.... Thanks to stop by .....! F
fredo84 Posted September 30, 2012 Author Posted September 30, 2012 Interior done.... I messed up the front bench .....you'll see the line ....well... Mock up time now.... Sorry that's quite a bite of picture .... What do you think ?? Thanks to stop by ...! F
Ramfins59 Posted September 30, 2012 Posted September 30, 2012 Your car looks great Fred. I love your choice of wheels, and that engine looks dynamite.
