"1941 Buouth/Plymick Sled"

Like I need another project... but this one has been in my mind for a while and the winter blues are kicking in so I need to cut some plastic.

This what I want:



And this is what I got:



The journey should be interesting...

That's a magnificent custom car, and you're taking on a huge challenge here Bryce, but knowing you it won't be long before the plastic body starts taking shape. Looking forward to seeing more work-in-progress shots.

nice, i love the satin green finish too. keep these pics comin bryce

now that looking interesting a cool kustom lead sled.

The first cut is the hardest...but too late to turn back now!



Still need to plug all the holes and fill in the rear windows, but I think it looks better already



I think I may also need to take a pie section out of the rear trunk and/or extend the rear fenders to get rid of that humpiness - we'll see...

Got a bit more done on this tonight - stuck at home while the missus went to the movies...

Wow! you have sectioned it like a real car. This is gunna be sweet, if it turns out half as good as your 40 Ford Tail Dragger' It will be a winner. gotta love that bog!
that must be our middle name, I think! cant wait to see it complete.
cheers

Bit more progress tonight - starting to look like something now I think...

you make it look easy bryce, well done.
watching this is like a growing tutorial, thank you

Now it's easy to see where it's all heading. Top work Bryce!

No way I'm going to make the deadline for this GAS, but this one IS still on the bench and making slow progress.

I grafted in a '50 Chevy truck grill to make that ugly front a bit more attractive:



I think I put it in a bit too low and it needs to move up a bit, but I'll tackle that next week.

Also opened up a huge can of worms by trying to fix the ‘humpiness’ of the rear by grafting on a set of extended '39 Chev rear guards and re-arranging the boot lid to match. It was supposed to make it look more ‘Buick-like’ but I think I have just spent a shitload of time making something that looks like a ’40 Ford.






What y’all think?

Yeah, I can picture it finished in my head and it should come up trumps!! what colour ya thinking of ? & ummm now what ya doing with that '50 pickup?

Thanks mate - colour will be dark. Maybe a green or blue...? Still not too sure.

The pick up was an old project that was never going to get finished, so no harm done there.

looking real nice Bryce ...
these new proportions are gorgeous .......





you're gettin' me all worked up , wanting to make a kustom !
