    I just retired from my job, so now I'm getting back into modeling that I haven't done for 40+ years ! I found your very well done channel abd now I need to buy about 6 of this kit to build all the variations I thought of as I watched this vid. Thanks for the inspiration !!

    The difference between you and I is that you get stuff done, and I set around watching you get stuff done. Start many ,finish few.

    Another classic kit that has stood the test of time. The fact you could build 2 complete cars really made this kit attractive to a kid on a limited allowance.

    Thanks for this, I need all the help I can get. I'm NOT and experienced car modeler and I'm going to attempt combing this with parts from a Revell hot rod, to try making a version that looks like my real life T-Bucket hot rod!
    I'm feeling a little intimidated, as the "instructions" are little more than: *"here's a bunch of parts... GOOD LUCK!"*

    I build this kit in the mid to late 1960's-plasic was black instead of white and the stock T wheels and tires were molded together

    • @thenewstuff3377
      @thenewstuff3377 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      I got the original AMT kit (1973) with the 2 piece tires but it only had one body. I built the stock 25 T, but I will buy another Chopped T and use the body for the assembled custom frame from the old kit.

  • @eclipsehorse8693

    Wow, where to start! Loving these old classic truck builds! They remind me of the AMT 36 Ford service truck kit. The fact you can build TWO complete kits and STILL have leftover parts is srsly great valu! Way to go AMT! Loving the weathering you did on both kits, especially the stock truck, it reminds me of something I saw on 'The Waltons' once :)
    Thanks for the final show off- the stock truck van looks like it's being featured on QVC- "...hurry! only 250 of these left!!!' Keep the kits comin'!

    Love this build. I might have done the convertible top in something like a light beige with a faded look similar to the bed of the truck to give it a little contrast between the top and the body, but that's me. Both of yours look great. Love watching you build your kits and can't wait to see your next build. 😊👍👍

    I had two of these kits, building one as a 1925 Model T automobile in pristine condition, painted in Mr. Ford's favourite colour, the other as the pickup truck, just slightly worn, and a bit dusty.
    Actually, I had built the car first, using Testor’s gloss black enamel spray can. The second I built a short time later (weeks, not months), using Tamiya’s gloss black lacquer spray can; it came out virtually flawless-so much better than the Testor’s that I quickly made it the sedan (coupe?), and with the former, I popped off the trunk part (cyanoacrylate adhesive, not being solvent-based, can be very amenable to the steel of an Xacto blade); I then added the pickup truck bed that I had painted with Testor’s gloss black enamel spray, for its slightly “wrinklier” finish (no, it was not to the level of “orange peeling”; just not smooth).
    When I showed them to a few of my neighbours in my apartment complex, some of the old folks fondly had recalled to me childhood memories in which an elder had taken them on a ride in his Model T car.

    very nice builds and very cool kit - sometimes you sound like building a kit is a matter of how fast you build it ! I like to take my time and enjoing the process and maybe use a week or two, when you say two days - people are different and don`t like the same process : ) -but i love what you did to these kits.

    Chris, did a quick check on the rear axle for a 1925 Ford and the model "T" is placed correctly. Have heard in the past that it seems like there is not enough clearance for the rear wheels. Enjoy watching those two kits going together. Keep on doing your thing!

    Nice builds! I recently purchased an original 1964 release of this kit. And I will take the measurements from the original chopped'T'coupe, and make the alterations on the three repops kits I have to build these in the classic style steering column. I think that the verticle steering column looks just plain goofy! I don't remember if it was the Norm Grabowski Kooky 'T' from the 77 Sunset Strip TV series that started the verticle steering column trend or not, but it just doesn't look right. I will also be puting different engines Into these builds. At least one of them will get a Flathead V-8 engine, in the 1950 style Hot Rod look.

    WOW! I remember bringing this kit home in the mid 60s. And that's when ya didn't need mom or dad to be there with you to buy glue. People sniff model glue, why? :-(

      Right? You don't really get an idea until it's all out of the box and built up.

    The truck had to be black. Any color you want, as long as it's black. Both are outstanding.
