I say you are coming along nicely on that one. I like the red and black.

I say you are coming along nicely on that one. I like the red and black. Thank's Bobby. The body color is the 1931 Ford Vermillion. Plasti-Kote no.FM 8134. The engine color is Ford Engine Green. I found it true PPG Paint Chart under no.47297 Green. If you decide to build on Factory Stock you'll have the color numbers. Christian.

Hey Christian, Nice build I have two of the 31 deluxe vans, One was severely damage so I decided to build a truck out of it . I am working on building a Type 229-A Service Car with a recovery hoist in the bed I cut the delivery body excessively , Should have just started with the kit you started I lengthened the frame and the bed I do need to work on some period correct wheels, This has been under construction for well over 5 years and gets worked on in between other builds

Hi Rusty. Your '31 is coming along very well. Are you using the original Entex kit or Minicraft repop? I'm building the Minicraft and came up with a problem. When it came time to fit the hood to coldash to the radiator,it was to short,I had to move the cab foward so it would fit. Part from that everything went ok. I use the " Original Ford Model "A" Restorer's Guide " from Classic Motorbooks as reference for my build. Thank you for your appreciation. Keep me posted on your on it.
Chris
