    Okay, they're models, but I've been really busy lately, and this last weekend was the first chance I've had in a while to play with any of my own projects. I love the rear of this '40:

    Maybe it'll give somebody an inspiration for their 1:1.

    Hey, I saw your post on the Hobby Heaven board. Didn't know that was you. Those two look really cool.
     
  6. Sweeeeeet.... Great photos too. I'll have to get to building another custom one of these days.

    Inspirational indeed. [​IMG]
     
  7. Oh man the duval w/s on the 40 convert is awsome. If I was ever inspired by a model it's that one.

  10. I built a '49 Ford once. I kinda started off building it as a mild custom. Somehow it ended up cream with red scallops and a big ol' #49 on the roof. WTF!?!?!? [​IMG]

    Gotta buy a couple more and do a chopped one and a sectioned one. That looks real cool.

    I built one of them shoebox Ford models with a 3.8 Thunderbird SC engine and 5-speed tranny in it...lowered it and painted it a Mopar "Go-Mango" orange with a white interior.

    Cool AMT kit...fun to build!

    Ribbed bumpers come in the AMT '40 Sedan Delivery, along with a nice steering wheel and a cool set of flipper caps.
