wayne swayze Posted July 17, 2014 Posted July 17, 2014 Hello. This Monogram 1930 Packard was built in 1991. It's OOB except the center headlamp, which came from a '33 Ford. Each spoke on all 6 wheels was stripped of the chrome and painted body clour. I also relocated the rear view mirrors to the top of the side mounts, to match the real car in the photograph. I don't usually build these old classics, but thought you might like to see this one.
wayne swayze Posted July 17, 2014 Author Posted July 17, 2014 Well, being new to the technology (and this site), I believe my "tablet" will only allow 1 photo per post. But what do I know? I'll try another view.
wayne swayze Posted July 17, 2014 Author Posted July 17, 2014 I apologize for the multiple posts, but here's another view of the Packard.
peekay Posted July 17, 2014 Posted July 17, 2014 Great looking model. The work on the wheels is a big improvement.
unclescott58 Posted July 17, 2014 Posted July 17, 2014 Very nice. You've got to love those old classic cars. Scott
wayne swayze Posted July 17, 2014 Author Posted July 17, 2014 Thanks to all those replies. It's really appreciated. I doubt that I'll be able to build as well as my eyesight is not what it used to be. Oh, the joys of getting old!
