But I'm not happy about it, and I consider the model a failure now...and this is the second time a Revell '32 Ford has gone bad on me at the very end. Totally different reasons but this kit seems like it may be becoming a foil for me, which stinks as it's a very nicely detailed kit.
This is my second consecutive 1932 Ford build. That actually is just coincidence. I had started this one months ago, but it's a very complicated kit and took a long time to build- longer still since I had scratchbuilt an interior for the trunk, and wired the engine with actual wire, my first time ever not using a pre-wired distributor. The Monogram kit has nowhere near the amount of detail, but is so much more fun.
It is my fourth time completing back to back versions of the same car in my modeling career. I track the order, and if known date of completion, with this album on my website. So, I went through it when I realized that I would finish two 1932 Fords back to back and realized it wasn't the first time. In 2001, I finished two 1956 Chevrolets. In 2005, I finished two 2004 Chevrolet Cup cars, and in 2007 I finished two 1996-02 Pontiac Grand Prix Cup cars, which were both Kyle Petty #44 Hot Wheels cars, the 1997 and 1999 cars. I believe that was the only time I ever did it on purpose. Although, had I been paying more attention, it could have been the third time I did it this year! I build two 2016-18 Ford Fusion Cup cars and two 2003-05 Chevrolet Monte Carlo Cup cars, but I did it Ford-Chevrolet-Ford-Chevrolet. Oh well. I'm on a street car kick now and I'm not sure if I will do any more NASCAR builds in 2019. (This reminds me to post them on here, something I forgot to do. I will back-date them to the actual date of completion.)
Anyway, here are the photos. The paint is Testors Extreme Lacquer Flaming Orange. The car has multiple coats on it so it's a little darker than it comes out of the can.
