Just a suggestion, before you cut out everything between those fenders lay the chassis flat, take a piece of alum. foil and mold between the fenders and forward to the line you'll use to join to the frame. You will have a pattern you can cut out and lay on top of the rear clip that should minimize gaps when you cut and fit.
Your build is coming along great! I really enjoy kit modifying and adding details! My goal with each build is to build the kit as if I were building a 1-to-1. In this case, I probably would have just saved the kit frame for dimensional reference and scratch-built a tube chassis and incorporate 3d front and rear components. That's what's great about this hobby....you build each kit your way...and that's the right way!
Color.... I'm currently painting the Dodge Warlock truck in Duplicolor Chrysler Inferno Red Metallic - looks really good! It's lighter over white primer though still a deep red, and much deeper like a maroon over black primer. Maybe a twotone effect, the lighter shade on the body and the darker shade on the fenders? 😎👍
Ain't kitbashing fun! This will look sharp once finished! I still have over two hundred fifty unbuilt models. I'm currently building models that were gifted and models that I started, but never finished. That's been my project for the last four years. Roughly around seventy models altogether. I think I'll get through the last of them by the end of next year. i rotate the gifted and the started and it's sort of eeny meeny miny moe.
That rear tub/suspension is fantastic! I have a '56 Chevy looking at me from across the room who really wants that, going to have to put together an order.
You'll get tĥere Matt. Kitbashing takes time and patience, which I know you have. Keep us updated on this modified build. Love the stance mock-up. Thanks for sharing.
Yes, quite an undertaking Matthew! But, so very satisfying. Welcome to the world of extreme kit bashing, lol. Nice thing is if you mess up you can reprint the pieces you need or dig into your spare kit. Only suggestion I can contribute is using some plain old Elmer's white glue to temporarily hold the body together so you can fit everything together without trying to hold it together with your fingers. When you're ready it's simple to pull apart and with a quick alcohol bath you are back to the pieces you started with. Color is really a personal choice, whatever floats your boat, so to speak. Looking forward to your next video of this build. 👍👍
I have alot of plastic mini blinds slats that are leftover from a kitchen window project and they really come in handy when having to fill gaps, as for the body- remember putty is your friend and solves a myriad of problems
Would love to see a 3d printed ford 390-427 hi-po factory version with stock 4brl carb,tri power, and 2-4bl. With all the factory air cleaners, exhaust manifolds and accessories. For cars from 1963 to 1965. Great engines for dirt track cars, vintage stock cars,ect.
I just remembered that about 6 months ago I started a 36 4 window. I painted it and put the engine together and put it back in the box then put it back on the stash pile.
Matt I have the same problems with the resin stuff, trying to figure out how the items go together. I can chop them up and get thing to work. It the small stuff I have trouble with , fuel fittings, spark plug boots and distributor, wire size , A&n fittings, fuel lines,,,, how to make them stay together. There all glue bombs when I try to use them. There not any video on how to use them, there not any instructions…… it’s start to add up $$$$$ when you end up throwing them away,,,, but thank for showing a little of your mock up, it helps a lot.. we all need some 3-d resin tutorials.
I like yer thinkin' Brother...big hugs , keep up , the good work RJ.....and a big heyhey , from the Redwood forest...lol , ps maroon is a good color on old Fords
The Y-block is a Pontiac. That is mentioned with the older issue kits. I got the one you're starting if I remember correctly in 89.; with mine I am using th flathead from the '49 Mercury kit, wiith the dual Stromberg carbs. The coupe top, and the gaps of the rumbleseat are filled in with Acraglass epoxy. And the streamlined license plate mount installed.
I like my Chevys, but have a hodge podge of different ones that caught my eye. Currently working on the AMT '21 Dodge pursuit. Painting it my local sheriff's colors and found decals online. Gonna be sweet.
“This dude has no idea what he’s doin” 😂 Fake it till you make it! It’s gonna look great when you’re done. I like the two-tone box art, but maybe with different colors. Peace and love.
I know you have products to showcase, but I did some thinking while watching this, and the easiest thing from my point of view to make a modern hot rod would have been sliding the chassis and power train from the Revell '37 Ford under that '36 Ford. I will say this is a theory versus a proven procedure, but it seems solid to me. Both kits are 1/25, and would seem to be a similar wheelbase being the same body style, Coupe, and the same 1:1 manufacturer separated only by one year and no major redesign. The only downside of this approach would be that '37 comes with Fuel Injected Chevy Small Block. But, if you did want to use that Ford Engine in the video, it would probably still be an easier transplant than your current plan of attack. Just food for thought. I enjoy your videos, and your enthusiasm for the hobby is contagious. It is making me want to dig out a '37 Ford I started and stalled on a couple years back, and try to find a Monogram '36 Ford and build it as a box stock Seventies Hot Rod. Keep doing what you do brother, and I'll keep watching. Thanks, (Not that)Jason
Watching you hack up those pieces was painful. 😂. Makes one think it would be simpler to build it like a 1:1 customizer using sheet styrene and square tubing.
The one to do is the 60s version that has the green drop top as the box art. It ha a chopped 3 window version. The 5 window version is much more common.

Got a good look going there Matthew...........I may have to put an order in before long.......have a great weekend
Thanks Jeff!!
My dad and I built this kit back in’62or 63! What memories
Very cool!!!!!!!!!!!!

Happy Thanksgiving, Matt to you and your wonderful family.
Looks like a lot of fun Matthew, you got this. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks Donnie!
I have always wanted to try that. Looking forward to seeing yours
Just finished this kit.. I remember when this issue came out alot builders were excited about the modern updated wheels in it.
👍🏻👍🏻

Great info Tom! Thanks
You can make it look like the California kid versus but it was a 34 ford 👍🏿 I can see where you trying to take it great job👍🏿 bring it to life
Thanks Leon!
Looks like a great start to what should be awesome build. Can't wait to see it finished Matt. I will surely be watching.
A Ford Mist Blue on the body with Gloss Black fenders would look killer on that stance
👍🏻👍🏻
So much fun making it fit right 😂👍🏻
Lol!!
You're entering my world LOL, looking forward for more cool updates brother
Lol!! Thanks!!

Always fun chopping things up and making parts fit. then trying to make it all look like it came that way lol.
😁👍👍

You do way better than I can that's for sure
I take the box that are the biggest to get more space for other kits, that's how I decide which kit to build next 😂
I believe the spare engine is a 389 pontiac
👍🏻👍🏻
"Rumble seat interference" sounds like 1930's birth control.😄 I like the idea of the pro street for that car. Mockup at the end is bad to the bone!
I like yer thinkin' Brother...big hugs , keep up , the good work
RJ.....and a big heyhey , from the Redwood forest...lol , ps maroon is a good color on old Fords
Thanks!!
Emerald green would look great!
Like the band...Deep Purple!
👍🏻👍🏻
As for paint I would go orange with some black pinstripes but that's just my taste lol.
👍🏻👍🏻
Good looking build there Matt👍🏻
Color.... metallic blue
Looks good so far 😎😁
Nice kit Matt, 😉 enjoy.
Awesome
The Y-block is a Pontiac. That is mentioned with the older issue kits. I got the one you're starting if I remember correctly in 89.; with mine I am using th flathead from the '49 Mercury kit, wiith the dual Stromberg carbs. The coupe top, and the gaps of the rumbleseat are filled in with Acraglass epoxy. And the streamlined license plate mount installed.
Very cool!!
It's looking good. In the Pontiac is the 389. That is on the old box in the box art is the yellow drag car.@@modelcarvideos5829
One of my favorite kits
I also built this kit around 1962/1963. My stash is only 50 kits, about half is hotrods and the rest up to around the mid 1960's.
Nice!!
That is going to look awesome.
a beautiful project
Thanks
I like my Chevys, but have a hodge podge of different ones that caught my eye. Currently working on the AMT '21 Dodge pursuit. Painting it my local sheriff's colors and found decals online. Gonna be sweet.
Very cool!!
“This dude has no idea what he’s doin” 😂 Fake it till you make it! It’s gonna look great when you’re done. I like the two-tone box art, but maybe with different colors. Peace and love.

Great suggestion Jason! I'll look into that
Just remembered the Pro-Street Willys. Has anyone swapped that into the Pre-War Hot Rod of their choice?
Oh man, stuff that 520 Boss in it!!!!
Use the Revell 37 Ford sedan as a chassis donor for a better car. Kit bash!
👍🏻👍🏻
The 59 El Camino also had a caddy engie. Weird heads, only three exhaust ports? How about a classic black and silver two tone with red pin stripes?
I would with Green!!!
👍🏻👍🏻
That is going to look cool 👍👍
Teal blue would looks sweet with white interior
👍🏻👍🏻
Watching you hack up those pieces was painful. 😂. Makes one think it would be simpler to build it like a 1:1 customizer using sheet styrene and square tubing.
Going to look nice
You need to print out a dropped front A-arms suspension for that . Then add it to your site .
👍🏻👍🏻
I hope your products have an instruction page. If not a CAD exploded page, you should have an instruction page for model kits
That's gonna be mean looking!!
Thanks Jason!
The one to do is the 60s version that has the green drop top as the box art. It ha a chopped 3 window version. The 5 window version is much more common.
👍🏻👍🏻
Paint it midnight blue 🔵
👍🏻👍🏻
Welcome to the stressful world of kit bashing 😂
Lol!
I think a silver-green paint job would be unique and awesome (silver spruce metallic).
Bright yellow
👍🏻👍🏻
AMT makes 36 3 window and a 36 5 window what's funny is the tops will interchange but door lines are different
Black would look good
👍🏻👍🏻
When you really customize a model, it always looks terrible at first. Make it fit and then make it pretty. 😁
That's for sure!! 😄
I have three of the 1936 Dick Tracey car models.
Nice!
Maybe you could paint in a nice copper color.
👍🏻👍🏻
Paint it a 2 tone orange and gunmetal with the engine black,brown or blue
Oooo I like that!!
PAINT- 2 Tone; gun metal gray ( fenders ), champagne ( body )
Silver with gunmetal accent trim
How about putting a single racing seat between the tubs and keep the rumble seat?
With rear meats like that , needs a hemi blower motor.
😁
Light green
2 tone Black & Silver
Other versions of this kit gave you parts to make a roadster version.
👍🏻👍🏻
Imagine ,replacing a Cadillac with a Ferd.
👍🏻👍🏻
Color Flaming Orange or Fiery orange
👍🏻👍🏻
I believe that tooling was used for the dick tracy box art.
👍🏻👍🏻
Finally caught one of your videos again how is the shipping to Canada for your 3d parts need some parts
