'29 Ford Turbo Rat Rod
Posted by Par429 on Tuesday, August 31, 2010 7:40 PM

Hey-
    I've been wanting to do one of these for a while now and I finally finished it.  It's a turbocharged Rat Rod built from a Revell  '29 Ford Rat Rod pickup with a four cylinder turbo engine from a Monogram '85 Mustang SVO.  It's chopped, has a slightly lengthened frame and I used lots of Metalizer paints.

 

Thanks for looking,
Phil

Mike-

  Thanks, glad you like it.  Wheels and tires are from Revell's '30 Ford Woody Street Rod.

Really nice build Phil. Great touch with the wheels and tires. Sometimes a build can be good and the choice of wheels doesn't make it. Your pick of wheels and tires set the rod off just right. Congrats on a job well done. Toast
