Thanks very much guys. I finally got my club plaque for the front and I'll do the license plate at the same time. I may post another pic or two.

That's a cool looking little deuce Rob! The wheels and tires really set it off.

I like SHINY :) hot rods. Super job, Rob.

[Jantrix]

I knew you'd like it Jim. Thanks Roger.

Saw this one on our club page. Man, what a beautiful deuce. I love the grille.

[bbowser]

I like the grill and headlight combo. Great rake and flathead. Altogether an outstanding piece of work!

Very cool. I'd take that as a full size any time.

I like it! I especially like the idea of building a vehicle you'd like to own in 1:1. That was the same premise that I built my recent Model A Roadster pickup. And when I hit that lottery I'm taking that model down to a rod shop!

And I like the grill. It makes the roadster unique and I think it's very cool!

[crazyrichard]

very very nice , said it before , the end result is stunning

[Jantrix]

Thanks very much guys. Coming from such an excellent group of builders the compliments mean a lot.

Tom, you bet I will too.

Super build nice and clean. The tractor nose is great!

Hi,

Nice build of the deuce with a traditional but original look to it - not something that is easy to do! As others have said, it all ties together very well and is an excellent example of a model builder doing a bit of scale fabrication!

[Jantrix]

Thanks very much James, I'm happy that folks seem to get what I was shooting for. I posted it over on TRAK and except for a few, it's not getting much love.

Nice to see a Ford Flatty in a Ford instead of the usual Chevy SB 350. Looks really sharp!

[Sixties Sam]

Say has anyone ever mastered an up-top for this kit? That might be a nice touch on this build. I know the AMT kit had one. Has anyone ever noticed whether it fits the Revell kit?

I used an old AMT top on a Revell Deuce roadster a few years ago. It fits pretty well. Here's a pic. Great work on your roadster! I like the channel and the front end treatment.

Sweet roadster Rob!!!

[Jantrix]

Thanks guys!

Sam, I really like your deuce. I'm going to have to look into getting one of those tops. Maybe in flat black for this build?

[surfjunke]

Beautiful Deuce, Rob. Really like the front grill you made, very cool idea.

[dantewallace]

Beautiful build Rob!!! Do you mind if I ask, where are the tires and wheels from? I must have them!!!!

[Jantrix]

Dante, the wheels/tires are from the Revell '29 Ford pickup 2in1. Hands down the nicest set of wheels/tires I've worked with to date. I think they really make this build. Thanks very much for the compliments.

Thanks for the information. It's a shame they can't be purchased separate from the kit.
