'40 Ford Coupe


This is AMT's '40 Ford Coupe #8056



I built this one from the box in it's "stock" form, I wanted a nostalgic "classic" in my showcase.

Body: Airbrushed in a custom mixed enamel, as near to the original "Cordoba Tan" of the period, the paint was a mix of Humbrol and Model Master, and trimmed with BMF.

Interior: Painted tu-tone brown/tan satin enamel.

Engine:The stock "flathead" was painted blue.

Wheels/Tires: From the kit, the tires were white-walled, using 3 coats of artists acrylic.

This model won me second prize at a local model show.
