This is a very, very nice model! I build quite a bit of this stuff and I know what it takes to do a Deuce that looks this true-to-type, well proportioned and in-scale throughout. I just went through the build thread and there's so much I would have asked about during the w.i.p. that I could incorporate in my own builds. What wheels did you use to go with what appear to be 1/24th scale Monogram/Revell '37 Ford truck tires (they look perfect)? Are the rear tires different? The set looks like big 'n' littles. Is that nice stance just the result of adapting a '40 Ford style rear cross member to the Deuce frame (again from a '37 Ford?)? Even the shine on the paint is just right. One thing I will remember is that you seem to have simply painted the entire Revell Deuce headlight/shock mount assembly body color and it looks just fine. I have always avoided this because I felt that I should allow for a chrome rim and I was just not up to the masking involved... It even looks like you used the Rat Roaster front fenders complete with disc brakes and yet it doesn't jump out at the viewer, because the whole car is so convincing! Anyway, I just love it and I think I'll just stare at it for a while... Thanx for sharing!
