I got a car modell in bigger scale. Seems like someone has used a way to big sandpaper. It needs some putty knife with spackel. I do not know the right english word for it. I am swedish. The chassi is nearly 16". No options like open the doors or trunk.

  • Oldschool297 changed the title to Ford 1932 model? White top and interior. What fabricator?

Yup, absolutely positively the Monogram 1/8 scale "Big Deuce".

I have several. Here's a build thread on one of 'em.

Definitely Monogram, there have been quite a few sold in Sweden over the years and you will probably be able to find the parts you are missing. My impression is that quite a few 1:1 rodders have both gluebombs and complete kits in the basement.
regarding the sanding scratches, I think you can get to the body well by sanding with wet sandpaper, filling deep scratches and using a slightly filling primer such as Hagmans (not Biltema's light gray). Test on a small surface. The Facebook group Grevens Glue Galore is the right place for those who have Facebook in Sweden.

Don't miss Hobbyhaket in Västerås, Fredrik might be able to help you.
