bobss396 Posted October 7, 2007 Posted October 7, 2007 Kit is AMT, wheels are Arrowhead Aluminum, tires are Modelhaus, engine is '65 Ford 427.
James W Posted October 7, 2007 Posted October 7, 2007 A good looking start on one of the prettiest cars ever made. I like the wheels n tires.
FloridaBoy Posted October 10, 2007 Posted October 10, 2007 The 1940 Ford is my all time hands down favorite car, from the grille to the taillights. I estimate that I have built over 100 of these cars mostly the AMT, but have a Lindberg, built and old MPC curbside, 1/32 Pyros, and the 1/43 AMT Sedan. Plus I have about 20 diescasts, too. This car is already off to a good start, as it looks like a lot of attention is paid to detailing the engine, and the design of the car accentuates the engine compartment. Keep up the good work.

bobss396 Posted October 11, 2007 Author Posted October 11, 2007 Thanks, a lot of work has gone into it. The floor pan was removed and I put in a smoothed one, available from Mark Budniewski. The 427 is from the AMT '65 Ford, resin carb, turned aluminum oil filter (my own), lowered the rear some more, used parts of the MCG '39 Ford PE set. I have to finish up the paint and get it assembled for a show next month. Bob
