Just finished this tooned "A" Tudor. Took one week. Tried to keep it simple. The figure is from a pinewood derby kit with his hat and hair ground off. He is the same size as a Dave Deal head. The body was a really bad resin piece of junk so the only thing I could do with it was rat/rust look. All the rest of the car is from the parts box. I know the grille is from a Roth Mother's Worry as are the exhaust pipes. The scoop is a Weird-ohs piece. The ladder bars are PL snap draggins. The AMT "A" frame is pie cut at the bottom of the firewall.  |

That's a pretty cool "Tude" ! I like the pinewood derby head , I never thought of that . I know its mostly from your parts box but any idea what the rear slicks are ? They look like maybe from the Raider's Coach .  |

Yea - those rear tires are plastic and from an old Raiders Coach. This is the model where I wanted to use the really tall tires I was looking for wheels for over on the want ads thread. Oh - and the head lights have buckets added to them to give then some depth as the ones on the Mother's Worry kit as flat as a board. The license plate was scratch built. The visor is from a Revell "A" pickup kit I think. Did not put on a tie rod and "little" things like that. I added a shift lever and a steering wheel to the guys hands. Attachment Deleted |
