Well back a couple of months ago Revell re released their 1932 Ford Sedan, which prompted the 

Well I was in from the word go as my favourite kits to build are the 1932 Fords and its iterations. I had to blow the dust off the desk and have a go. It was fun to be part of a build off, I decided on a patina finish of the body with everything else being in a rather newish state. 
Please excuse the state of the shop, the guys had to clear out a project to get the photo shoot done haha!

I also am looking forward to seeing this kit hit the shelves here in Australia. I really like how you kept the patina to the tin work while everything else looks clean. Really well done Bil. 

Cheers, 

David. ??

Remarkable looking finish on the body. Great detailing on the engine and exposed suspension. Like the stance along with the wheels and tires.

Yes, definitely. Sits just right too.  :D

Thanks Bill, I’ve learned that ride height is importanter than shiny paint ?

Nice work Bil I like the lack of paint finish.

Thank Robert, when I first started building hot rods, I never really worried about shiny paint, still kinda don’t lol.

Thanks David, I’ve seen a couple of patina cars that were body only and everything else was mint, so I gave it a go on this one, I’m sure the wait fit the kit will be worth it!

Thanks David, the great thing about the current releases of the 32 ford from Revell is the mix n match ability.

Bitchen' '32 Sedan, Bill. I'm not much into rusty patina, but yours turned out GREAT! Applaud your concept and creativity...

Thank you Tim, I appreciate and slightly humbled by your comment.

Thanks Steve appreciate the comment

Very nice. For some reason what really puts it together for me is your choice of black grille shell. And the choice of wheels/tires. Well the engine too... What can I say, I just love everything about it.

Excellent! Love the look of this hot rod.

Have you been "screeched in" on the Rock (Newfoundland) yet?..:-)

 

Thank you Ken, and no I’m a native son so I don’t need to get an Honorary title, I was born with it.
