|
|
I finished up this Leo Cleary modified yesterday. The hardest part turned out to be the front fenders and after messing around with sheet plastic and aluminum from a soda can, I ended up cutting them from plastic spoons and piecing them together. Not perfect but as good as I could do. The body started out as the AMT '40 Ford Modified and it is mounted on a Big Donkey Vintage Modified chassis that was lengthened at the front. Wheels, tires, hubs and lots of other parts are from Ron Coon and Mike's Decals. The decals are by Polecat Decals. It's not perfect but I'm pretty happy with how close I could get it to the photos I had.
