m3fan Posted March 24, 2020 Posted March 24, 2020 (edited) With all this time on my hands I thought I’d submit some pics. I hope you enjoy! This was a quick build that went together better than I thought! It is the amt body, interior and wheels and tires on the Revell 32 frame from the 29 kit. Hope you enjoy Edited March 24, 2020 by m3fan
alan barton Posted March 24, 2020 Posted March 24, 2020 That is stunning - I am going to have to pinch that idea. What a beautifully simple conversion. It is satisfying to see that the exhausts on the nailhead help divert your eye from the AMT 32 Section job. Wheels and tyres look great also. I have Vicky bodies, I have 29 hiboy frames - this will happen! Cheers Alan
David G. Posted March 24, 2020 Posted March 24, 2020 Nice mash-up, it creates some very subtle changes that improve the overall appearance. David G.
Claude Thibodeau Posted March 24, 2020 Posted March 24, 2020 Hi! Perfect blend... It looks like it came out of the Rodder's Journal! Even the colour "dates" it in an appropriate manner. Bravo! CT PS: I LOVE those American front "spoke" wheels. I'll dig out the copy of the AMT kit in my stash to verify if they are included. Thanks!
Snake45 Posted March 24, 2020 Posted March 24, 2020 Absolutely beautiful concept and stunning execution! Not crazy about the color but I love everything else about this model. VERY well done and model on!
Matt T. Posted March 24, 2020 Posted March 24, 2020 (edited) That is a perfect hot rod. Too cool! Edited March 24, 2020 by Matt T.
Jantrix Posted March 24, 2020 Posted March 24, 2020 AH! You beat me too it. I have both those same kits out on the bench testing to the chassis swap. It's nice to see they work so well together. I'll get to it eventually. Yours looks terrific. Real nice work.
m3fan Posted March 24, 2020 Author Posted March 24, 2020 Thanks for the comments. Like I said it was one of those rare times things just fit together.
tim boyd Posted March 24, 2020 Posted March 24, 2020 Russell....that came out great! Congrats.....btw what color is the paint? It is perfectly matched to the build era of your model...…. TIM
m3fan Posted March 24, 2020 Author Posted March 24, 2020 Hi Tim, thanks for comment I’m glad you like my colour choice as I wanted a fifties/sixties vibe. As for the colour it is a custom mix from my local auto paint store.
larman Posted March 24, 2020 Posted March 24, 2020 Great job! Look's like it could be on the cover of an early 60's rodder magazine!
espo Posted March 24, 2020 Posted March 24, 2020 Beautifully done. The color reflects the time period as well as the interior. I haven't seen a good looking Vicky in a long time and I like this one. Great detailing on the front suspension since everything is out in the breeze.
Hmann68 Posted March 24, 2020 Posted March 24, 2020 Another gorgeous build, nice detail and clean work!
Tom Louis Posted March 24, 2020 Posted March 24, 2020 That's a great looking hot rod! Nice build, tasteful, great paint and engine, very realistic! Is that the stovebolt from the older Revell model A roadster kit?
