Ford "T" Green Hornet show & go roadster.

So around 15 years ago, my dad gave this re-issued kit to me & said that he had built this when he was young.  I built it pretty much box-stock except for the headlights that came out a Monogram 29 Ford roadster pickup.  Just did paint detailing & added a couple of extra decals (the flame decals where with the kit, just blended the paint to match the engine block color).  Fun build that was fairly quick.

Super sharp. Built that in about 1960. Forgot about the great hot rod features like the headers and easily removed body.

Thanks to all for the nice comments,  I almost forgot that I also drilled-out the header pipes as well to make them look better.  My Dad passed away about 10 years ago & got to see this one, but I learned most of my techniques & skills from him, so this was sort-of a tribute to him.
