codie27 Posted January 19, 2013 Posted January 19, 2013 I started with a monogram kit and built it using the Matranga Merc as inspiration for the side glass profile. The roof is of course chopped and laid back in the rear. I scratch built a 39 Zephyr dash panel for the interior . The headlights have been moved to the outer fenders just because I've never seen it done on a 37 Ford before. The tailights are sunken 59 Caddy bullets and a 49 Ford rear bumper. The engine is a Flathead. Hope you like. Comments welcome good or bad
Villain Posted January 19, 2013 Posted January 19, 2013 Interesting roof treatment. I like it, good job!!!
surfjunke Posted January 19, 2013 Posted January 19, 2013 Beautiful build. I like the concept & you did a fine job.
lotno249 Posted January 19, 2013 Posted January 19, 2013 Love that red, man. Great job on this cool looking model. DJ
codie27 Posted January 23, 2013 Author Posted January 23, 2013 Thanks guys. DJ, it was going to be that shade of red the minute I bought the kit. I remember a lot of old rods from when i was a kid in the 80s being painted that colour. It contrasts so well with the chrome work.
realgone58 Posted January 23, 2013 Posted January 23, 2013 I think it looks cool! Love the Mack next to it too.
