This is the last of the models that I got. Decided to rat it up. Surprisingly.

I told my daughter she could pick the color of the wheels and I'd paint the interior the same color. She picked gold.

Not what I would have picked but it works I guess.

I'm not entirely satisfied with the grill and headlights but I'm not sure what to do with it.

Flat Black =/= Rat Rod.

Build looks good, post pictures when you're finished.

* Walks away, past five kit boxes of unfinished models.... *

get a 32 ford kit or 34 ford kit for a better grille and headlights. The 32s come with nice stands for a no fender rod

That kinda sounds like a waste. I wonder if that stuff is available without the whole kit. I'd rather build that than the 40 truck haha.

try eBay guys part kits out all the time. I buy kits just for parts. I'm doing a 57 Chevy 150 gasser using parts from a 62 Vette gasser. I'll never build the Vette but its has lots of useful parts for kit bashing
