OK, here's a little bit of an update on the ol' '36 coupe. I kinda switched gears on this build, to more of a kustom look than the old skool hot rod look of the 1:1 car it was based on. It now has running boards and a sectioned '40 hood. The black steelies are just for mockup purposes; it'll get some sort of hubcaps.

I thought you had the exhaust coming out the rear tip of the fenders? I thought that looked pretty cool.

I like this look a lot, Randy. Buttoning it up with the hood really moved it into the kustom arena. Well done. I love those flush skirts!

Where did ya get the wheels in the first pics be fore the change? Those Olds hubcaps are from the Revell Ed Roth '56 Ford pickup, and the tires are the killer whitewalls that Revell is putting into everything these days. ;D
