You Know,...i'm Not Really Into Street Rods, But....

[Albert Wallace Jr.]

With Revell's new '32 tudor kit I just got, I just might try my hand at building my 1st Street Rod model. I saw this on the way to the Long Beach (Ca.) Hi-Performance Swap Meet, and thought Hmmm, I kinda like that.

Wish me luck in trying to build a replica.

Go for it Albert! I know you could do a great job of it!

Believe it or not Albert, I also picked up this kit at our club meeting Saturday! I was very impressed by the preliminary reviews of the kit, and couldn't resist buying it.

I even have some "reference photos" of the car already saved on my hard disk. I'd like to build mine as a kind of Highboy(?) with cycle fenders.

Like you, I've never built a street rod before, so this'll be a "first" for me..............I have a number of builds in mind for '08 that'll be firsts!

hi, you do know the car in the photo is a 28/29 ford not a 32.

Hey man, go for it. Drop a 421 Poncho with trips on it, maybe a tri-colored set of bucket seats and you'll be right at home.

Albert,

Do the shiny one first - you don't need a rust bucket yet.

The Poncho power sounds like a good idea for you to try.

I believe that you will have a great time building this,and it will lead to more...Go for it!

Hi Albert! Just so you know the rusty one is a 30 Model A Tudor Sedan. It has more fabric (vinyl) on the roof than the 32 Tudor (among other differences) but you could use it as a template to build a beat up 32. Whichever way you go I'm sure it will be cool!
