    There has not been a Sunday models for 2 weeks now so I wanted to start this one off with some fresh models I have built. First up is a 32 Ford 3 window that Spoggie built then it broke, so I then rebuilt it again for any different kits. Second model is a 32 Ford roadster which is just a quick build Im doing. Last model is a 29 or 32 Ford roadster.

    Here is my '34 PU . This kit was originally released by AMT in late 1962 , and over the years has been a favorite of mine & many fellow modelers alike. I built my first one in 1963 . 40 yrs. later in 2003 I built this version.:)

    Wow, FordFreak, looks we're on a similar wavelength! Looks great! Here's my '34 pickup; an cheap ebay find I took apart, cleaned the cigarette smoke staining from and rebuilt late last year with some new and old parts after polishing the original paint, Testors Burgundy Metallic applied sometime in the '60s.

    I repositioned the front axle forward a bit and moved the rear one back to center the wheels. Also tweaked the front cross member and spring to get the nose a little lower. The wheels are from the original AMT Ala Kart kit

    As received...

    Lately I've been working again on rebuilding this '59 Ford Sunliner as a mild custom. Finally decided to go with a "drawer pull" style grill from an Aurora Customizing Parts set from the '60s. Painting the background flat black makes the little chrome squares "float" in the opening, nicely complementing the squared-off look of the Fairlane 500's front end design...

    Here's a '58 Sunliner with another custom grill from the Aurora set...
