First completion is a Revell '32 Ford Street Rod. I really liked this kit. The color is Createx Copper Pearl. The radiator cap was swallowed by the carpet monster. :unsure:

My second completion was the Lindberg '32 Ford Street Pickup. This was probably one of the worst kits I have ever attempted to build. The platting on the chrome was horrible. I stripped everything and shot it with Alclad. The paint color is Createx Mango Pearl. I didn't even bother wiring the motor. This is a out of the box build other than the Pegasus wheels.

Nice builds.

Your comment on the Lindberg '32 has stopped me wasting my money on it. Much appreciated!

Thanks

I didn't mean to discourage anybody about the kit. It just doesn't have much detail. Especially on the chassis. The bottom of the cab is open where you can see the bottom of the seat. I really didn't want to use the stacks, but I didn't want to spend the time to fill the hole that was molded in for the stacks in the running board. The "tires" included with the kit are made of styrene.

I would build the kit again (I have the Lindberg '34 Roadster Pickup kit too). It makes a nice shelf model.

They look nice regardless.

Mounting the dual horns in the headlight bar holes of the fenders was a unique treatment. I've never seen that done before. Doesn't look bad.

That's what the kit called for. It's growing on me.
