1932 Ford Phaeton

Post by BlackSheep214 »

With the damn Ford FD-100 shelved, I decided to jump in on an oldie kit I acquired from Brent Jacobs (Handiable) a couple years back. An oldie I wished I had done as a kid and seldom seen built up.

Here's the kit:

I haven't decided on the colors yet. With the lack of a decent engine in my stash, I'm looking at hoping to find a pair of exhaust pipes as these... IF they can work with the fenders on. I may cut the cowl sides and install the hood as shown in the silver Ford.

Either choice is a very cool rod!

For some reason, I lost interest in going forward with this one and put it away for now. :bag:

Banished to the shelf of doom… :sad:

Not so much the SoD, just lost the ambition to continue on. It looks to be a bear of a kit though.

No further progress photos.

This kit has been traded away to another member over at modelcarsmag awhile back.
