This is an old project that's been haunting my workbench for ages. I attached a front clip from an AMT '41 woodie to a Revell '48 convert. The frenched headlights are '57 Ford buckets, the Dagmars are old AMT Parts Pack items, and the grille is the Lasalle piece from the AMT '36 coupe. The fadeaways were done using body sides from the Testors Chezoom kit. Wheels are from a Jada diecast. Randy

Beautiful, finish it...laughing, okay, I haven't finished anything since I started six years ago or so...but I'm working on it. Would like more info on the fadeaways, want to do them on the forty I am working on and not certain how to get them to curve back in towards the body.

Hey RF... That same parts pack had a set of similar bumpers with smallish bullets that can be drilled out for exhaust tips. Might work for the rear with a little tweaking
