Excellent build!! Trying to replicate a 1 to 1 vehicle is (to me) the most difficult type of build. Your attention to all the details really brings this build to life!

[@modelcarvideos5829]

Thank you Johnny!

[@williambayer1146]

Gandolf the Green turned out AWESOME ! Nice work my friend!

[@modelcarvideos5829]

Thanks Ray!

[@mikesmodscustoms]

Another excellant build! Thanks for sharing! Go MCV Products!!!!

[@modelcarvideos5829]

Thanks Mike!

[@lancerevell5979]

I usually mount the wheels/tires first, create the "rolling chassis". Just the way I... uh... roll. 😎👍

[@modelcarvideos5829]

😁👍🏻👍🏻

[@markc7002]

Stunning result, that backseat looks like legit leather!!

[@modelcarvideos5829]

Thanks!

[@diecast_MikeEspo]

WOW . Love it .

[@modelcarvideos5829]

Thanks Mike!

[@amyschry4129]

Beautiful build Matthew! Looks so authentic & realistic. It's great to see a master builder turn these "vintage" kits into little gems.

Congratulations on another outstanding build, I really like these ' older' cars, best regards from Australia, Les

[@modelcarvideos5829]

Thank you Les!

[@michaelcooke2559]

Very nice looking build. It turned out to be a great looking model. You have the magic touch with those older cars. Keep up the great work. Nice that you mentioned Marks ad for MCV Products. Mark is so creative. Thanks for sharing.

[@modelcarvideos5829]

Thanks Michael!!

Excellent build. Love the details. 👏 🤌

[@modelcarvideos5829]

Thanks!

[@MasteringTheModel]

Be careful with those missing parts. If you get to close, they might reach out and bite ya! All joking aside, you did a good job on this build.

[@modelcarvideos5829]

Lol!! Thanks

[@rondill1956]

Cool build, Matt. Turned out great.

[@modelcarvideos5829]

Looks amazing thanks for sharing ,have a great week 🙂

[@modelcarvideos5829]

Thank you!

[@drppr76]

Nice job on the old Ford - I usually put wheels on last, too

[@modelcarvideos5829]

😁 I'm not alone! Lol! Thanks

[@KitchenTableScaleModels]

What a great build Matthew. Looks terrific. Good to see some 3D Mopars other than hemis. Now we need a few small block 340/360s. Or maybe a 273 HiPo?

[@modelcarvideos5829]

Thanks George!!

[@dwaynewatson4279]

Great job Matthew what a awesome build

[@FlashBackModelWerx]

Nice build. Thanks for sharing

[@modelcarvideos5829]

Thank you!

[@christesta7553]

This Ford came out excellent Matt. Very nice color. The detail work on the engine is perfect. Your 3D parts are just as perfect. Enjoy your week and thanks for sharing.

[@modelcarvideos5829]

Thank you Chris!!

[@justinsnow4247]

Oh man, I bust out laughing, Matthew when you were talking about parts going flying!😂😂😂 If I don't hear the one click the part might make as it finds its hiding place , I have no idea where to start looking😅 We need stickers about what happens to the parts that go flying from the bench 🤔

[@danielpaulsness6951]

Nice build 😎

[@modelcarvideos5829]

Thanks Daniel!!

[@rosschamberlain1823]

Looks like I'll have to build one now. Amazing!

[@modelcarvideos5829]

Thanks Ross! It's a really cool kit

[@samuelvasquez8170]

Awesome looking build

[@modelcarvideos5829]

Thank you!

[@timothyharrison8953]

Six Pack or Six Barrel depending on Dodge or Plymouth. Your A turned out great!

[@modelcarvideos5829]

👍🏻👍🏻

[@modelcar1589]

Thanks!!

[@alanr4863]

Alsome job well done

[@modelcarvideos5829]

Thanks Alan!

[@funken079]

Like the color on this model. Depends on the build with tire mounting. If they are wheels that click in place I mount before. Most of the time I put them on mock up but then remove them till the end. Each build has its own set of steps. Seeing I started with Nascar builds , I mounted the back plates only for those. Then I placed the tires with wheels at the end. The tires were on during mock up.

[@troywebb3493]

Nice build love it

[@modelcarvideos5829]

Thanks Troy!

[@mcmodelworks]

Looks good brother. I don't mount my tires and wheels ahead of time either if I can get away with it. Just makes getting the body on the chassis much easier.

[@modelcarvideos5829]

Thanks!

[@sambaldwin3730]

WOW That turned out great. I always do the wheels and tires before the body. Never had any issues yet. Thanks

[@davebrunette6394]

Very nice build! Just ordered one of your 440 magnums. Your 3d printed stuff is awesome!

[@thebeardedguyjefflawless5887]

Great looking build Matthew.........the reason I hadthe tires and wheels on that Vette chassis is it was warped.......and that way I could get it straight.........thanks for mentioning it..........

[@modelcarvideos5829]

Thanks Jeff!

[@user-bf1sd3mm7m]

For Mopars, I think they termed their 3 carb setup a six pack.

[@modelcarvideos5829]

🤦🏻‍♂️ That's it!

[@samuelvasquez8170]

I once lost a small part and apparently I stepped on it and broken into three pieces. when I looked for it i got luck and found two pieces. And the next day I found the third part.

[@modelcarvideos5829]

😬 I'm glad I didn't break mine

[@Rl469]

Really nice model, Matthew! I have that kit. Perhaps I will build it as Gandalf the Grey (a la Tolkien). Cheers!

[@modelcarvideos5829]

Lol!!

[@user-bf1sd3mm7m]

Excellent build!! Love that travel trunk. Is it going to be available for purchase by chance?

[@modelcarvideos5829]

Yes I will make it available asap!

[@garyslentzii2796]

Cool little car. Looks just like Gandolf.
Is it too late to pop off the trunk & drill & grind the weight out of it so it's not so heavy? Just a thought.

[@modelcarvideos5829]

She's glued down tight Gary! Thanks

[@scalemodelfrenzy]

Man!! Awesome job she looks amazing! I have an odd question, any way you could measure the height of the tires in this kit? I have a project I'm needing some taller tires for and I like the style of these

[@modelcarvideos5829]

I'll do it this evening if I can remember.

[@scalemodelfrenzy]

​@@modelcarvideos5829that'd be awesome!!

[@heidihobear]

So I have a interesting question for you. How is it that I have seen you build cars for a contest. But then also for your self where the car you made for your self is so good you could probably enter it in a contest. So how did you come to this type of build style?

[@modelcarvideos5829]

So these are my favorite Era of automobiles and would love to build this style all the time but this car would be passed by at a show because it lacks that eye catching shine and customization not to mention I think it would bore everyone if this is all I built so I have to keep verity in mind. My next build will probably be a hotrod of some sort. Thank you for the question!

[@ellsworthanderson9636]

Do you know of anybody or any hobby store that would have a Ford model a 124 scale that just came out or 1/25 Modle? I am looking for one let me know.

[@modelcarvideos5829]

I think you can get them on some online hobby stores. The brand of that kit is ICM

[@Hjerte_Verke]

The constantly moving camera is maddening. Get a tripod and stop this primitive one-handed U-Tubing, 😉
