I am building a '32 for somebody right now, it is actually turning out to be a really nice kit.

I am building it full fender as I prefer the look of it, but I am still busy with the engine detail and haven't even got as far as the chassis yet.

yeah is a nice kit indeed, everything fits just fine, no problems with any extra plastic left in the parts...

the engine looks great, too bad i cant find one with a blower :icon16:

i going full fender for this kit, and will buy another kit, and make it no fender, and hopefully i can find a blower, and make it looks like a hot rod :icon16:

here is a pic of my engine :icon16:

i have built 3 32s so far and have a few more in various stages of completion it looks great with or without the fenders .build 2 or more as you can also chop the roof, looks alright so far

sorry for the quality, but to make the picture the correct size had to make some quality out :frown:

hey man, dont give me more ideas, or i'll be building 32 choppers the rest of my life :icon16:












j/k
load some pics :bigthumb:

why not one with and on without? HM a highboy a low chopped and channeled one, a slat flat car, a roadster, the FInk Speedwagon
Oh the possibilities
Can you tell I love this kit?

Theres a better pic of the Purple 32 on the post " Clear Coat " check it out it has a Supercharged Salene 5.0 from the Salene Mustang Kit

Your 32 looks good so far! I have one in progress also. I like em w/ and w/o fenders (Mine doesn't have em).
I shaved off those bigass door hinges and swapped out that 302 for a flathead V-8. Oldskool Style! :bigthumb:

BTW you should paint the air filter a flat color. Red maybe?

You're gonna wish you put the wheels on before putting the body. :redface:

why? :sly:

the body is not in yet, is being primed now..

why u say thar?:rolleyes:

It really looks to me like its a work in progress and un painted, so the wheels don't appear to be a problem.
I like the aircleaner suggestion, flat white with a very thin flat red wash makes it look like a K&N fiter.
Post up those completed pics:bigthumb:

sorry if its already been mentioned, but who makes this kit? id love to have a speedster on my shelf:iceslolan

Revell 32 Ford, also have a 32 Roadster and the Fink 32 Speedwagon, they all share the same frame and suspension, slight engine variations. A kit bashers Dream, I have purchased no less than 8 complete and a few partial kits

thanx:bigthumb:

yup, if i ever do it, it certainly wont be built any where near box stock

heres a good site for your referance to the fenders or not

http://m2reviews.cnsi.net/reviews/cars/stewart32ford.htm

it depends what style your looking for really its up to your but if u want my opinion without fenders if u paint it a dark colour if u paint it a light colour put the fenders on

have fun :bigthumb:

32 Ford Roaster

MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM..................Roast

I built '32 Ford like that a couple years back. I did the Hi Boi version, with the bigger headlights though.

I like to see them ZZ TOP style with guards and huge wheels.

jst painted the body with the 1st coat, after 3 coarts of primers, i sorry but i cant wait for a week, for the primer to dry:icon16:

well, is only the first coat, and the parts are not glued, they are just sitting in there :icon16:

Done :smile:

Lookin good too :bigthumb:

Very nice suspension parts! And the paint, it's looking mighty awesome!

Nice, but the paint is a bit sparse on the very front of the running fenders. Might wanna touch that up with a gloss black marker :wink:

ZZ Top rules. I have some of his cassettes from the good ole days when cars had cassette players and no C/D players.

back in the good ol days the cars had a-track's

Hey, reading that post, I would imagine you were a youngster too :wink: :icon16:

No need for the behavioural outburst, pops :wink:

In the words of the great Bruce Springsteen:

"She's a hot stepping hemi with a four on the floor
She's a roadrunner engine in a '32 Ford"

Looking good. Is it 1/24 or 1/25?

Here is the one that I did.
