Cars...?

[Lucky13]

A wee bit more done on the '40 Ford pickup...

Question....

The hood have some edges on each side, should they be there, or should this area be smooth, can I sand them down?

 

[woody]

Looking good Jan as for the hood set in place and see how the fit is you should be able to sand smooth. I guess i will join in on a car build i need to shop for one HMMMM.

 

[Lucky13]

Just some trying out things...

Btw, which is the stock panel?

 

[woody]

Jan that satin black looks great as far as the dash the one with the ford logo would be the stock dash.

 

[Aaron Brooks Wolters]

The upper dash panel is the stock one with the rectangular speedo. As for the whitewalls, that would depend on just what you want to portray,(oldschool or new).

 

[Lucky13]

Always liked old school Aaron, it's a shame that it's too late to make them reversible(?)....

 

[Lucky13]

Just a wee bit more, not much....

 

[Lucky13]

Well, the decal whitewalls didn't want to work properly, so tried another way, not too happy with the rear wheels...

Doin a nice job on that pickum up truuck. Polished primer, I remember that from the late 50's when I was in high school.

 

[Lucky13]

I'm stuck though mate, to keep it like this or 'polish' her up! She sure look good like this, but would also look good all nice and shiny! D*mmit!

 

[N4521U]

Nah, that's a keeper in primer. I had a '39 four door Ford Deluxe. 350 Chev under the hood. To hide the battery I had a shelf in the fender behind the front wheel. In a water tight box.

I have posted car pictures from the Sydney Model show, see my last page! Some beautes.

 

[Lucky13]

Well, then she'll stay like this, I have Vallejo Satin Varnish...
Can't decide how to paint the dors though, being inside, outside and window...
Would have been easier to paint real ones, which I'm used to...

 

[Aaron Brooks Wolters]

Jan, if you painted the white walls you can true them up with a razor knife and a template.

?? They're painted, aye...

 

[Aaron Brooks Wolters]

Well.............................................get crackin' mate!

 

[Lucky13]

I'm cracking up here, wondering how to best paint the blasted doors....(I know, I'm only supposed to blow them off!)..

 

[woody]

Looking good Jan nice job on the black satin finish.

 

[Lucky13]

Next, get the doors sorted...
Not as easy as painting the real thing!
