oldschool Posted March 13, 2014 Author Posted March 13, 2014 Hi I´m almost done with this Coupe now, so just a few sessions left Before it´s finished. Then I can restart the B400 build again. Hope u like it. Larsa
f1ford48 Posted March 13, 2014 Posted March 13, 2014 did you make this body also? nice looking car!!!!
oldschool Posted March 15, 2014 Author Posted March 15, 2014 No This started as a five window Coupe from Mike Gradis. I got an second quality casting and had to replace the hole body so I took a roadster and with some (plastic) surgery It was in place, then the top chop was done and I´ll had to section it to get the right to. So would I do it again? yep I´ll do it again but this time with the 3 window Coupe witch is coming my way any day now. Lars
1930fordpickup Posted March 16, 2014 Posted March 16, 2014 Lets see you have a 5 window coupe , B400 and a 3 window headed your way . I am starting to think you like the 32 Ford . Great job on these.
DumpyDan Posted March 16, 2014 Posted March 16, 2014 Wow, this is so cool, you have done a great job. I am looking to see more..............incredible!
oldschool Posted March 16, 2014 Author Posted March 16, 2014 Yep, 32 is my number for the moment Larsa
oldschool Posted March 16, 2014 Author Posted March 16, 2014 Almost forgot the Roadster I started with it´s started with a 1976 black edition with the new Flattie,Duvall wind shield,New head liugths from Big Jim and the Pontiac tail lights from the Big -T.
pharoah Posted March 16, 2014 Posted March 16, 2014 Nice roadster! That's kind of the way i want to build mine.
f1ford48 Posted March 17, 2014 Posted March 17, 2014 they all look real....how do you do the windshield frame on the 5 window?
oldschool Posted March 17, 2014 Author Posted March 17, 2014 Hi Frank I´ll used 1,5 mm plasticard for the windshield frame. First I did a template in cardboard, used this template on a plasticard and carefully sanded down the outer edges to a nice fit, then I used a drill bit to take out the inner areas and just leaving the frame. Carefully sanded to shape. Had to do a lot's of dry fit to check the frame against the window opening. /Larsa
