Ford '32' Hot Rod

Hi to All:D,

Taking a break from my NASA Rocket Garden to recharge:(

For my next build I have decided to on Angel G's design custom Ford '32' Hot Rod.
Available from here http://www.jleslie48.com/gallery_models_other.html also a Ford '33' is available.

He has included in his design a GIMP colouring software that allows you to change any part to the colour you want!!

I have chosen a 'Electric Blue' for the body and I have also added Hot Rod flames.
For the engine block I have chosen a flame red colour to match part of the flames.
Next up: Engine build

Hi to All:D,

I have finished the engine and transmission.
All parts fit with no problems
I have chosen the air scoop over the optional air filter.

Next up: Exhaust and manifold

Hi to All:D,

Moving at a pace now
Wheels and tyres are finished!!
As you can probably see from my previous post,I changed my mind on which design of Alloy to go for....
Settled for the 'Boyd Coddington' style

Next Up: Body
