Ford Model A

1928 Ford Model A Tudor

Some time ago I noticed the Revell 1929 Ford Model A Rat Rod issue. I liked the car because I didn’t had a closed cab A in my collection. I decided to build it stock with the stock wheels from an AMT ’29 Roadster. I was still busy building the stock version when I had a nice idea for a special conversion. So I got myself another Rat Rod kit, another ’29 Roadster for the stock wheels and started building. And here is the result, Ken’s Garden Supplies Ford Truck. The rear section is a superstructure made from 1mm plastic which was completely covered, inside and outside, with 0.5mm x 3mm wood. I used a grand total of 267 pieces of wood. I had some trouble to get the hinges of the rear doors right, but thanks to Art Anderson from Spotlight Hobbies Message Board I got some very small hinges which were perfect. Many thanks again, Art!
