Revell 1937 Ford Pickup

I've seen this listed on rocketfin models along with the stock version which came out a few years ago.  This one is definitely on my wish list for some rusty/crusty work.

Yeah I'll be getting one.  I saw the older version 37 on the website but not the one I'm referring to.  

I hope we see this soon here in the UK.

I hope we see it here in the US as well.

I just say this listed on Modelroundup as a July issue kit for $33.90.

Yup.  I saw that.  I like to support my local Hobby Shop so I'll wait until it comes in.  

Well....I got the 37 Ford Pickup Street Rod finished.  Painted with Tamiya X-3 Royal Blue & cleared with Tamiya X-22 clear.  Wheels & tires or from the AMT 66 Nova Pro Street kit.  The front & rear suspension was modified to except the wider tires.  I wired the distributor and battery.  I think it turned out the way I pictured it in my head before I started. 

There's one I'd be proud to have on my shelf.

Nice work!

I really like old pickup trucks but have never built a scale model kit, just a HO resin once. I'll be keeping my eyes peeled for this one.

Great work. I love the color. The board is a nice touch.

Thanks man.  The surfboard came in the kit.

That's absolutely beautiful!

Oh!

 That looks like the first company truck I drove for a landscape design firm in L.A., It was the only company vehicle they had for the new Employee at the time(ME). I Didn't get on the freeway much. 

You don't see a lot of flatheads used in the builds these days, looks great to see one and you did a great job on it too !  Nice build Zip, lot's of liking it here .

That looks like a model so many things could be done with, seems like a guy could build two or three iterations of those over a period of time.

Thanks man.  Yeah, lot of different ways to build this kit.
