Dan Fink's 1932 Ford Speedwagon

[jwhalen]

Hi Guys,

This is the project I'm assembling at the moment. It was cleaned up and sprayed in August/September and I was able to get a reasonable amount of assembly done during my Christmas break I have just enjoyed.

It is being built mostly out of the box with a bit of superdetailing (engine ignition system, brake discs & wiring, photo-etched instrument panel, resin grille surround with photo-etched grille and stainless steel roofbars).

Here's the assembled engine:

The rolling chassis:

A mock-up to give some idea of how the final build will turn out:


Hoping to get the interior finished this week!

Cheers,

jwhalen hey my friend how come U placed it in my area, not that I'm being a grumpy old F@#t or anything or is it that U just forgot to put it in U'rs. Great build by the way and wish it was mine.

Hi Guys,

Managed to get the interior finished for the speedwagon over the weekend. I'm using the Model Car Garage photo etch detail set for the kit to help add a bit of detail. I haven't used much from the set for the interior as it won't be seen easily when the model is completed, but I have used the photo etch dial set that came with the model.

Here are couple of pics:

Hi Guys,

It is almost finished - I think there's about six or seven little jobs to do. Should be done by the end of the week. Here's a picture of how it is looking now:

Hi Guys,

There was a delay to finishing this project as I was stupid enough to lose the photo-etched Ford badge for the back. I ordered another detail set through Scale Dreams (the money won't be wasted as I'll use most of the new detail set for another '32 project).

Here's a few pictures of the finished model:




Cheers,
