OK here she is completed I painted the body Icy Blue Metallic  I kept any body mods to a minimum I opted out of using the front fenders but went with a full rear fender  Next I went with the white face guages and a wood steering wheel also I used embossing powder to give the floor a textured feel  On the chassis I plumbed a fuel pump and filter and ran the fuel line to a scratch built pressure regulator also scratch built the anodized fittings  Then there is the motor I went with a blown smallblock Chevy I added the fuel log, scratch built a fuel pressure guage, ran plugwires and boots  And a few more just for fun   |

That is a very nicely presented build Mikey.
The paint looks very good, some nice interior details and some fine plumbing and scratch building went on aswell.
I also like the color of the wheels too, tones it down a bit, and gives it the TUFF look.
GREAT JOB !! hand-clapping-smiley-emoticon

Nice work, taking the pics in the sun really made the paint shine. It looks like it should look as a hot rod

With this really being the first car I have purpose built for a contest I was a little worried that I didnt do ANY body mods and went a more classic hotrod route but in the end I am glad that I stayed true to what I like and didnt try to exceed my skill level I did do some new things but nothing real crazy |

Very cool looking Roadster! I like that color a lot and it's refreshing to see a '32 on a bit different color like this. Sharp work all over combined with the great parts this Rat Roadster kit has (For example those tires and interior upholstery pattern) creates a very cool Hot Rod. Nice work.
