Re: 37' Ford street rod.

Nice details. I like the flame theme inside and under the hood.
Great color combo too.

The engine comes with the kit.

I am going to work on the interior today. Also using the wonderfull SAS brakes on this kit. Which reminds me I need to place another order with Chris

Ok, so I am progressing on the chassis, brakes are photoetched/resin units from SAS. the suspension pieces had been chromed and the shocks are copies of motorcraft 1:1 units.

Overall coming together slowly...











What do you think? any suggestions?
