Flamin' Candy Red T-Bucket


Candy Apple Red ’25 Ford T Bucket
(More pictures below)

I’ve been experimenting with paint lately and recently shot the body of a Revell Boomer T in Tamiya Clear Red over Testors Inca Gold, the result being a genuine and very bright candy red. I then decided to take some of the Fad T vibe out of the car by deleting things like the carriage lights, the trailer and even the roof and switching the wheels, trim rings and tires to those from the Revell ’29 Ford Roadster Pickup, adding chrome spiders, courtesy of Modelhaus. The wheels are finished in Inca Gold. The flames are from a Revell ’32 Ford 5-window and the tailights are AMT ’49 Ford. The motor has its carburetion back dated with a six carb manifold from Replicas & Miniatures Co. of Maryland topped by a half dozen Stroberg 97’s scavenged from some Revell ‘29 Ford RPU kits. The engine block is finished in Inca Gold. Other than those changes the build is straight out of the box. The interior is Duplicolor Wimbledon White with gold flocking.

Thanx for lookin’
