Some time ago, a friend of mine make me an offer on my 1940 Ford Sedan Delivery. Knowing he would take care of her, I sold the car. What happened was that immediately I regretted doing so. The way out was to build a twin sister of the one I sold. It's being on and of for a few months, but I managed to finish her today. Same color (Mandarin Maroon) same licence plates, but a bit more accurate.

Hope you guys like her, and this time it's NOT for sale :lol:

Tulio that's really nice paint (As usual ! ;)) Is it my imagination or have you opened the doors?

Thanks!! No I didn't open the doors. Only the rear door is a separate piece, but I glued it shut.

Beautiful job on a car that doesn't usually get the attention it deserves. The interior looks very nice, just a question, did Henry paint the commercial dashboards a different color than the passenger cars, I know that the deluxe passenger car dashes were all painted a dark maroon. Did you move the voltage regulator, I see the wiring for it, but the regulator seems to have disappeared, lol.

Now you need to build a pickup to keep your commercial vehicle lineup going.

Thanks guys!!

Gorgeous. What brand is the maroon paint?

Maroon paint is Tamiya TS-11, a perfect match for Ford Mandarin Maroon.

On a Sedan Delivery Standard the dash would be all maroon. On a Sedan Delivery Deluxe is just like the it would be on a passenger car. I did nothing to the regulator, it's just like the kit came. The only mods I did was to shave the car taillights the AMT kit has, and scratchbuild a correct taillight for her.
