ridinframe Posted March 27, 2013 Posted March 27, 2013 Started life as a monogram 1932 ford street rod kit. Frame was Zed in the front, in the rear it was cut and scratch build with a higher kick up, all painted mystic emerald green. It has a 1957 rear axle from the revell black widow kit, scratch built 4 link and chrome drive shaft. Engine is from the revell 1959 Cadillac kit painted silver with a candy green and detailed with wires. Body is a 1930 ford chopped 5 window from jimmy flintstone painted mystic emerald green. Interior is the stock interior for the monogram 32 ford painted white with black flocking on the carpet, scratch built seat belts and the dash from the 1957 black widow kit, cut down to fit and painted to match the body and frame with hand pin striping. The grill/radiator is from a 1930 ford kit painted and hand pin striped as was the rest of the car. I've been working on this car for 2 years on and off. I hope you all enjoy sour apple.
High octane Posted March 27, 2013 Posted March 27, 2013 What a sweet lookin' Deuce and the photos don't do the color justice as that Testors Mystic Emerald is an awesome color.

351 cleve Posted March 27, 2013 Posted March 27, 2013 Awesome! Every so often someone comes along to remind me how old I'm getting. This is just like the hot rods of my youth. Love the color and the quality of the build.

realgone58 Posted March 27, 2013 Posted March 27, 2013 Just perfect! Love Mystic Emerald, and it suits this build beautifully!
Ron35369 Posted March 27, 2013 Posted March 27, 2013 Beautiful work Josh! I'm glad you decided to finish it. Great job on the pinstriping.
rmvw guy Posted March 28, 2013 Posted March 28, 2013 You captured the look of the late '50s early '60s for me and I love everything about it. Lot's of ideas from this one. I love the pin-striping and the way you carried it out underneath. Nice job throughout!
drifterdon Posted March 28, 2013 Posted March 28, 2013 Very cool. Love your pin striping. Great color too.
Grumpa Posted March 28, 2013 Posted March 28, 2013 Beautiful little Deuce Josh! I love the "tri-carbs"! They look great on this car! Great color too!
ridinframe Posted March 28, 2013 Author Posted March 28, 2013 Thank you all for the great comments. I'm glad everyone loves it, I'm very proud of it.
Sixties Sam Posted March 28, 2013 Posted March 28, 2013 Great looking classic hot rod! The color is just right, and the pinstriping adds a nice touch. Well done! Sam
gonzo64nova Posted March 28, 2013 Posted March 28, 2013 Thats the way a 32 should look. The JF body looks real good ,I think Ill stop chopping my 32s and just buy that body it would save me alot of work.
