larman Posted August 4, 2019 Posted August 4, 2019 Great wheels, super motor, stance is dead on, so is the chop. This is an outstanding model.
gman Posted August 4, 2019 Posted August 4, 2019 Home run with that one- great period look, well-executed and cleanly built. I like everything about it.
Koellefornia Kid Posted August 4, 2019 Posted August 4, 2019 That is one sweet sedan! Nice chop, great engine details! Just love it!
alan barton Posted August 4, 2019 Posted August 4, 2019 Didn't I just see that one in Rodder's Journal? Wow Dennis, simply a beautiful hot rod. The channel job works well (and you rarely see a Tudor channelled!) and I love the fitment of the rear tyres in the wheel arches. The Olds looks right at home there and the grey wheel centres tie everything together. You continue to set targets for all us hot rod modellers to meet! Cheers Alan

That neo-traditional Rodders Journal look is what I was going for with the color and sports car style wheels. Channeled Deuce Tudors aren't that common, you're right. But in the recent past I've done a channeled Roadster, 3-Window and 5-Window so I figured I should finish out the Revell '32 fleet with a channeled Tudor.
Plowboy Posted August 5, 2019 Posted August 5, 2019 One of the best, if not the best '32 sedans I've ever seen! As usual, you gather all the right parts and they go together perfect! Excellent work!
zakdoggi Posted August 5, 2019 Posted August 5, 2019 WOW!!! Great build, superb detail and super pics!!!

David G. Posted August 6, 2019 Posted August 6, 2019 Smooth and Deadly! Excellent work on bringing all the right bits together in one beautiful build. David G.
BeakDoc Posted August 6, 2019 Posted August 6, 2019 One dang fine hot rod. Well thought out and very well executed.
styromaniac Posted August 6, 2019 Posted August 6, 2019 Saw this on The H.A.M.B. website...nicely done!
