Flatout Posted July 21, 2023 Posted July 21, 2023 This build was inspired by Harry Luzader’s 32 Ford Gasser that raced in the mid 60’s. While the Revell 32 Fords are much more detailed and certain aspects of the body are more accurately shaped…I really enjoy building these old AMT kits and trying to make something cool from them. Used a lot parts from other kits and aftermarket on this one. Engine is from AMT 57 Corvette Fuel Injection manifold is from AMT Double Dragster Injection stacks are from Speed City Resin Magneto and wires from Pro Tech Wire looms from Model Car Garage Headers from Drag City Resin Frame is from AMT 32 Ford Vicky (more detailed than the Coupes) Front Suspension is from AMT Double Dragster Wheels from Drag City Resin Rear Tire from AMT Parts Roll Bar from AMT 32 Ford Vicky Steering Wheel from Monogram 32 Ford Roadster Headlight Bar from Monogram 32 Ford Roadster Fuel Tank from Revell 32 Ford 5 Window Coupe Tail lights from Revell 32 Ford 5 Window Coupe Thanks for lookin’?… 15

Ace-Garageguy Posted July 21, 2023 Posted July 21, 2023 Whoa. That is pretty. Nice to be reminded just how great these dinosaur kits can look when built with care and skill. 1

ColonelKrypton Posted July 21, 2023 Posted July 21, 2023 Simple, clean, good choice for colour; all around very nicely done with lots of eye appeal. cheers, Graham 1
ea0863 Posted July 21, 2023 Posted July 21, 2023 Pete, I love the tasteful way you built this rod - from the color choices to the rims, it is beautiful! 1
Bainford Posted July 21, 2023 Posted July 21, 2023 I love what you did with the Deuce. Very cool look, and you nailed the mid-60s vibe. Well done. 1
Zippi Posted July 21, 2023 Posted July 21, 2023 That's a good looking 32 Ford drag car. Very clean looking build. I' really diggin this one for sure. 1
espo Posted July 21, 2023 Posted July 21, 2023 This is one tuff looking Deuce Coupe. I agree with you about these early AMT '32"s, they were like building with Leggo blocks. All of the parts from all of the different kits all blended together perfectly. Great paint finish and I like the stance and the Pie Crust Slicks. 1
karbuildr Posted July 21, 2023 Posted July 21, 2023 Very nice 32, great color choice, superb details and use of other sources. 1
