TimKustom Posted March 21, 2013 Posted March 21, 2013 Just got this off my workbench. Had a blast building it. Here's some details, but I hope the pix speak for themselves. Body/Frame/Seat from the old Monogram kit. Cowl sectioned 3", lengthened 5". Frame Z'd 4" in front 6" in the back. Engine from AMT parts pack. Suspension parts from Revell '32 Ford & Tweety Pie. Scratchbuilt Hallock style windshield and underslung radiator below supercharger. Paint is Tamiya Clear Red over Testors "Diamond Dust" and lots of Alclad. Whatcha think? 1

cobraman Posted March 21, 2013 Posted March 21, 2013 That is way cool. Does the trunk open ? It looks like it may.
Chris White Posted March 21, 2013 Posted March 21, 2013 Great work, that it beautiful. That kinda work gives us hacks something to work towards.
Erik Smith Posted March 21, 2013 Posted March 21, 2013 Very cool and nicely done. Not over he top crazy but different enough to be noticed. Great paint on the body and all the "metal".
RatRod Posted March 21, 2013 Posted March 21, 2013 I have one of those kits, and I would have never guessed it could look so cool. Great build Tim, Love every square inch!!!
crazyjim Posted March 21, 2013 Posted March 21, 2013 Extremely nice, clean and SHINY :) . Don't you think the engine might need to be cooled off? Can you share your source of gauges? I like that 4 in 1 deal. What scale is this puppy?
Grumpa Posted March 22, 2013 Posted March 22, 2013 Wow...this is really cool Tim. Great work on the engine. Where did you get the great looking hose clamps?
Sixties Sam Posted March 22, 2013 Posted March 22, 2013 Now there's something different! Great idea, and very well done. Sam
