The Ford line of cars was updated in 1937 with one major change, the introduction of an entry-level 136 CID (2.2 L) V8 in addition to the popular 221 CID (3.6 L) flathead V8. The model was a refresh of its predecessor, the Model 48, and was the company’s main product. At the start of production, it cost $850. The 1937 Ford featured a more rounded look with fine horizontal bars in the convex front and hood-side grilles. The front grille was V-shaped, rather than following the fenders into a pentagon shape, as on the 1936 model. Faired-in headlights were a major modernization found on both the Standard and Deluxe trim versions, though much of the rest of the design was shared between Ford’s two lines. A larger water pump was used to help aid in cooling. The \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Fat Fender\u00e2\u20ac\u009d design became one of the favorites for \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Hot Rodders\u00e2\u20ac\u009d to customize.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

For the Modeler:<\/b> This review is based in the Revell # 85-4097 California Wheels version 1\/24 scale 37 Ford Coupe Street Rod. This kit is Skill level 2 for intermediate builder and contains 128 parts. The kit is molded in White, Chrome and Clear and has Vinyl Tires with metal wheel pins. This kit has seen multiple box-arts over the years and is a Reissue (Re-Pop). The body is stamped Revell 1994 so it has been around at least 20 years. You get a nicely detailed small block V8 with either carb or fuel injection options. The chassis is simple and clean. You get 2 wheel choices for a Big-n-Little look or the oversized rims look. Two sets of very nice flame decals give you a design option. **Note** My kit was missing the Big-n-Little tires so on Jan 21st I went on the Revell Parts Order website http:\/\/www.revell.com\/support\/index.html and ordered the tires. On Feb 3rd I had replacements in my hand. That was a 13 day turn around on replacement parts, IMPRESSIVE! Overall dimensions of the finished build are: Length: 7-1\/8″, Width: 2-7\/8″, Height: 2-5\/8″.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
