32 Ford Vicky

[Bowtienutz]

I purchased a Replica in Miniatures 32 Ford Vicky. I think the Vicky is the prettiest 32 Ford produced. I planning on building it very traditional on the outside with a stock body, full fenders, maybe some nice wire wheels if I can find some. I have a aftermarket Jag rear that I've been saving for a special project that I've finally found. I'm thinking a small block Ford with Weber carbs. I'm really stuck on paint color. I see very few Vicky's built, Let's see yours, give me some paint ideas and help me with some good looking big and little wire wheels something that would look like "appliance" brand wheels. Thanks

Will be waiting to see what you come up with. Here is one I did a while ago.

Andy that's a sweet looking Vicky, did you custom build those headers? If so, what did you use for the collector cone? I browsed through your photobucket album, you have a clean building style.

I've always liked the Ford Vicky body and also have a Flintstone "chopped" Vicky body in my "stash." Hopefully I'll build it someday. That's a sweet build Andy.

Vince, I like your ideas for this build. and 'glad' your gonna use a Ford power plant! The Weber idea is awsome. So, since you say 'traditional' do you mean the colors too?

Andy that's Pretty Cool. is That the AMT kit? The RIM conversions does not have the cowl vent, the Soft top, or door hinge details, I like the dark green paint. I'm looking for some formal colors

Hey Vince! Here's my '32 Vicky. A bit bright!

For Appliance wires, would those be the ones in the AMT '65 Riviera? I also had some nice wire wheels on a chrome tree from a Monogram(?) '32 Ford but I don't know which issue it was.

Thanks. I did build the headers and just used some glue tip cone things (not sure what they are called) that I found in the model row at hobby lobby.

Thanks. This is the amt kit but I used a revell front axle and flathead.
