Lindberg 49 Ford

[confederateinfidel]

Heh, found this at the hobby shop. I like 1/32 kits, and the box said *Made in USA* so I figured for $7.50 I'll give it a try.

The body is three pieces, it does not quite look right after being glued togather, but its still pretty cool. All of it is molded in white, even the wheels, with separate glass. The box says its a Tudor, I'm not an expert on these old cars, but it looks like a Fordor roof on a Tudor body. No chrome, no options, no engine, just a basic little car. Its cool in a funky way, and will make a great little rat rod.

ConfederateInfidel says check it out.

Yep, neat little kit. It is "out of proportion", BUT you got to consider that the dies for this kit are over 40 years old! Buy the lindberg T bucket, cut the hood out of the 49 coupe and drop the Caddy engine down in place, and........

Yea they also have a 34' Ford coupe in 1/32 scale. I might try combining the 34' with the T-bucket to make a Rat rod 34' Ford in small scale.

Hi. I am from Lexington and Me and my buddy started the Bluegrass modelers back in 91. It broke up over a year ago but I would like to get it started back up again. The club was getting more like a informal meeting and not a model car club so some lost interest.
I want to start the club back up and gear it more toward the building - learning - teaching type of club. That way we can all learn from each other and of course, build better models.
My son works real close to the Hobbytown here in Lexington and I think we will be able to use their confrence room for our meetings. We will have to work out what day we want to meet when it works out best for all of the members.
You can see some of my models in the Factory stock, Muscle cars, Street Machine and Racing sections here on this board.
If it sounds like something you might like just send me a message at [e-mail]

Thanks Dave
