1948 Ford 5 Window

[Irvin Arter Jr.]

Was going thru my fotki album and I am not sure if I ever posted my 48 Ford. I used a "Perry's resin" body on the Monogram errrrr Revell 48 Ford conv. It was after We moved and I did not have my stuff set up so it was a raddle can special. I did my weathered look by spraying red primer then flat black. Sanding with a polishing kit to sand thru a few spots and rubbing out the pant with polish for a patina look. Added wheels and tires from the 32 Ford. lowered with the patent pending "ARTERAKE" Engine has the motor city hot rod parts from the flathead with aluminum exhaust tips.

enjoy!

Very clean 60's style hotrod!! I like that the weathering isn't overdone...

That's a neat old street machine, Irv. You should have faked us out though, and photographed it on a slotted wood block!

Very cool, Irv! I was beginning to wonder if you built anything that doesn't have a slot chassis under it. I love the patina. I am going to try this on a couple of builds in the future. Oh yeah, can't forget; you got the "Arter Rake" perfect on it too!

Very nice build, really like the wheels and the stance. I'm gonna have to get one of those bodies from Perry's.........
