Solar Flare is done. This is a 1925 AMT T-Bucket, (Chopped T kit) with a VCG Resins Oldsmobile Hot Rod V-8 motor, fully wired with Protect wires and sparkplug boots.  Track grill shell/nose is from Model Car Garage.  It’s painted Testors Yellow decanted enamel.  The rear wheels and tires are from the 34 Ford Slammer dirt track race car, and front are from the MPC Firetruck 13 hotrod.  Gas tank, electric fan, shifter and Front axle are from VCG Resins.  Ron Coon gas pedal and steering linkage. Kens flocking provided the interior. Diamond plate bed is scratch built.  Wrapped up in 6 weeks.  Still have another Chopped T kit calling my name!  Enjoy.

Very nice details on this one Scott. That Olds rocket makes this model stand out. Really well done. 

Cheers,

That does it.. I need a '25 Ford kit... VCG Resins makes a nice chassis for it.

The frame from VCG is amazing, I used it on my Chop top 25

Beautiful looking paint finish and flames. As everyone else has mentioned, the sourcing of the many parts really work well together. I'll have to get one of these engines, the detailing is outstanding.

Excellent work putting together that collection of diverse parts. Sweet little hot rod and you can't go wrong with yellow. Also like the detail of the Olds engine. I have a track-nose A in the planning stage.

Fabulous Build! I love T-Buckets and yours is one of the best. The Olds Rocket powerplant is an inspired choice.

 

Good Show.
