Thread: model a 3 window

Tweet

Thanks to Bob for the picture of the '29 cabriolet with the wild two-tone paint job. All it needs is a fox tail! I don't know if I can go for this paint scheme and it seems traditional for rods to have solid colors, but it is refreshing that in that era they did have some paint schemes other than Ford black. I'm glad to get back to cars again after several days of "computer hell" caused by a combination of adware contamination and a long series of downloads converting from MSN v7 to v9. For those who like the 3-window A, I believe there are at least two mfgrs. who make fiberglass 3-window bodies but they are almost double the price of a roadster; still in a rain/snow storm a 3-window looks like a better idea than a roadster!

Fantastic! I echo Tech's sentiments. The original looks like some of the stuff I've seen at the fairgrounds swap meet here in Springfield at the end of August. Just didn't look salvageable.

Great work Jim, looks just like Henry would've made it -- if he made one!

Boyd aint got nothing on ole Jim

here is another pic of a prototype 3 window '30 Ford coupe. They look more like a olds or something imo..I like them. not sure why Ford never produced them.
