Here's my first build posted on this site..Hope you like it ! It's an AMT '32 Ford with wheels/hub caps from an AMT '53 Ford pick-up kit (thanks "Hubcap"), and a 232 c.i. Studebaker engine. I chopped 4 scale inchs from the roof , channeled it over the frame. I tried to keep it as 'traditional' as I could-'Cause that's what I do Peggy Sue !

Very nice Cecil! Excellent job on the chop. The first, and only, chop I did was to a '32. Turned out to not be as easy as I anticipated!! Again, great overall look to this one!

Ah come on Cecil tell everyone that you really bought it that way. Are you sure that you did'nt buy it that way? No really just kidding. You did a great job on the chop and channel. I could sure use about 4 or 5 of those bodies for my table. Great job and great attention to detail. ;D

Seriously cool Cecil, the stance, color all work together nicely. Traditional is exactly what you achieved.
Excellent Build.
