37 Ford 3-Window Coupe

I am working on it again... just took it off the shelf this morning... give me a few days... I hope to get the body hollowed, the chassis drilled and cut for it in the next few....

I have to race it on the 9th of October, so I need to really start back into it pretty good.

Jay, any update on this car?

Hey Guys !

So, the car is mostly done... all I have to do now is weight it and tune it... This thing turned out SLICK ! ! !

I was able to get the body hollowed out pretty good, but it still weights more than 1.5 oz without wheels and axles on it.

That's okay though... this is not supposed to be my fast car, just my best design car.
 
Wow, that is one slick coat of paint.

How did you do the pinstriping?

Thanks VK !

Hand painted all of it...

J/K... those are actually decals. With gloss lacquer over them... l was worried they might lift, but they worked out pretty nice.

I still want to get a couple more coats of lacquer on it before the final appearance at work on Friday.... and a nice wax job.

Thanks Guys,

I know it isn't a fast car compared to what we build in here, but it turned out pretty cool...

This is my favorite compared to all of my other cars that I carved.
