Review and Photos by Michael Krueger \"Mike<\/a><\/p>\n

When given the chance to build and review the 1937 Ford Panel Truck, I jumped at the chance because I have always wanted to build that kit.\u00c2\u00a0 All of the pieces to the Panel Truck upon inspection were all very nicely molded and clean and free of any scale.\u00c2\u00a0 I thought because of that the panel truck was going to be an easy build.\u00c2\u00a0 I was half right, because the motor, chassis, and body all went together without any problems at all.\u00c2\u00a0 It wasn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t until the final assembly that I ran into any problems. When assembling the chassis to the to the body portion of the panel truck, I found out that there was a major fit problem between the firewall\/floor and the motor.\u00c2\u00a0\".Mike<\/a> I found this to be very troubling because I followed the instructions to the tee.\u00c2\u00a0 Upon inspection, I found is that the engine was sitting too high in order for the body to fit down on the frame.\u00c2\u00a0 To make sure the chassis and the body portions would fit properly, I cut the top half of the transmission off all the way to back of the engine block.\u00c2\u00a0After doing the engine modifications, the model continued to go together without any further problems.\u00c2\u00a0 Because of this, I would highly recommend fitting all pieces before final assembly.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

If you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re wondering about the paint, I choose to use Krylon paints.\u00c2\u00a0 The main color is Ivory, the chassis and rim color is maroon.\u00c2\u00a0 I then sealed in the ivory and maroon with matte finish.\u00c2\u00a0 This is the first time in a very long time that I haven\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t used automotive paints on a model kit, but found that using Krylon paints isn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t so bad and a lot cheaper. After final assembly, I decaled the panel truck with the decals supplied in the kit.\u00c2\u00a0\"Mike<\/a> The decals are very nice and extremely easy to work with.\u00c2\u00a0 I choose the Chicago family business decals because they offset the colors that I used on the panel truck.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Overall:<\/strong> Like I stated above, the panel truck went together without and major issues except for the firewall and motor and just because of that issue.\u00c2\u00a0 Don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t let that keep you from building the panel truck kit.\u00c2\u00a0 Just do a mock-up\/pre-assembly and you should be able to avoid that issue all together.\u00c2\u00a0 I would recommend this model kit to builders that have five or more years\u00e2\u20ac\u2122 experience because of the potential fit issue though.
