Very nicely done. Your dedication to the hobby deserves our praise. Thanx for sweet models and detailed commentary on parts selection and methods of construction.

Thanks guys! As always I appreciate the appreciation! I have to admit, beating up on Revell's venerable Deuce kits is a favorite form of relaxation for me... This was my choice for an end of year quick build when I realized I hadn't done a Deuce in 2015.

Once again, thanks to you all!
Boy Ron, the original Trophy Series release of the '49 Ford was an amazing kit that just kept on giving!
Regarding the engine, the detail on those Parts Pak motors is exceptional, and stripping the chrome off them and treating the exposed metal parts with Metalizers really brings it out. I find that finishing the blower cases in Testors Metalizer Magnesium and with Testors Metalizer Burnt Metal for the end caps creates a pseudo magnesium lightweight look that's very "realistic" in scale. It's actually somewhat inaccurate but looks somehow true-to-life viewed either with the naked eye or in photographs when presented in miniature.

Broken Photobucket links repaired. For now I'm only updating completed model pics. Updating w.i.p. links is just too huge a task! I'll update them on request...
