1927 Lincoln "Gangbusters" MPC model kit. Still amazing at 57 years old!!!!!

[@charlie418791]

Right up my alley !! Nice job , ya magnificent bastard. 👍 I took a ride in a rumble seat once But , the car was parked.👍

[@modelcarvideos5829]

From you Charlie I definitely take that as a compliment!! Lol!!

[@scalecustomworkz7837]

I honestly LOVE how it turned out and the way you make leather look like it's naturally aged.. AMAZING. Now I'm inspired to get back to the MANY kits I have. I have a 1/16 Lincoln HEEP in around the same time frame as this one I bought on evilBay many years ago. A lot of fixing before build. Old kit too. 1928 Dietrich by Entex. Was a built mess, no box or instruction sheet.

[@charlesbecker9617]

Looks good. On my cellphone it looks like a cream colored body, and a Light brown fenders. My take on the difference between burgandy, and maroon is that the maroon is the darker of the two. Your color combination really Pops!

[@kevinwooldridge8261]

Outstanding Mathew! You are spot on with colors... In that era it was pretty common for a stark contrast between the car and the wheels. Oftentimes there was a pinstripe(s) on the main body accent line to match the wheel color. Excellent work brother and best to you and yours🤙✌

[@BIGJIM1934]

That little door is for your golf bag and those little "handles" above the rumble seat are actually there to keep the soft top from rubbing on the body.

[@modelcarvideos5829]

👍🏻👍🏻

[@michaelhintzmikesminiature1812]

Great looking build!!!! The colors are not what you normally see but I think they work well together. Nice Work Matthew

[@williambayer1146]

What a wonderful build Matthew! Outstanding job on a fairly fussy kit. I really like your color choices, as most had black fenders and kinda bland body colors. Nicest build of a Gangbusters kit I have seen. That luggage rack isn't really meant to be moveable, let alone glued properly is tricky. Making the steering move by the wheel is really tough. You should have thrown the golf clubs and bag through the small door?? LOL!. Keep up the good work! ( Beth and I rode in rumble seat in model A roadster,,,WEIRD!!)

[@modelcarvideos5829]

Thanks!

[@billhuber2964]

I remember the "gangbusters" series. From mpc. They were great !

[@MrModelworx]

That turned out beautiful Mat!, nice to see an old kit built 👍🏻 I have one of those MPC 65 Corvette kits still in its box, it certainly does come with the full size open drag chute.

[@modelcarvideos5829]

Wow that's cool!!

[@RoadRunnergarage8570]

Absolutely Gorgeous!!... Beautiful build of a 50 plus year old kit!!... You really outdid yourself on this one Matt!!

[@grimwurks]

I've always seen that that side door was for your golf bag

[@joelrooks389]

Why would you spray the claret wine paint into a cup then pour that into your airbrush and paint the wheels? Why not just paint them from the spray can or did you add something to the paint?

[@modelcarvideos5829]

Sprays too heavy. I can control it with the airbrush

[@joelrooks389]

@@modelcarvideos5829 Thank you! I love all of your videos. I’m new to the hobby and I’ve learned a lot from you.

[@carouselofcrazychrisb]

Oh man is this cool!! This build is one cool ride. I actually bought my dad this kit few years ago, he still hasn't opened it yet, I'm definitely gonna send him this video to give him a kick!

[@modelcarvideos5829]

Thanks Chris!!

[@davidhinkson8856]

Lovely color scheme on the old girl! That claret color on the wheels looks ideal for a 1966 Galaxie in my stash.

[@modelcarvideos5829]

Thanks David!!

[@billhuber2964]

My compliments on building that '27 roadster.

[@modelcarvideos5829]

Thanks Bill!

[@jasonwaltrowski2315]

Awesome build, makes me wanna build my kit, I was on thr fence about building it but now I want to build one, and yes I have rode in a rumble seat car, at the street rod nationals the guys in the club would let us ride around the fairgrounds, my dad had a sedan so no rumble seat

[@modelcarvideos5829]

Very cool!!

[@DavidRLentz-b7i]

David R Lentz, USA Just lovely!

[@modelcarvideos5829]

Thanks!

[@kenhanson1819]

That looks fantastic, Matt! The wheel color was an excellent choice! As a kid, our family car was a 1967 Chevy Impala wagon with a third bench seat we referred to as the "rumble seat". It faced rearward, so you were always looking out the rear window. When rolled down you got a good dose of exhaust fumes and carbon dioxide. It's amazing we survived!

[@mattomon1045]

the little side door is for your golf clubs.

[@davidwalls850]

Turned out really good. Paint works good together. 👍 ✌️

[@ledheadkustomplastic3442]

Seriously man, I don't think you could have picked a better color combo.... That thing looks ELEGANT AND CLASSY....

Absolutely a stunner Matthew! The maroon wheels fit perfectly! Looks like you could drive it to a antique car show. Glad to see the Model Car Videos license plates make it “legal”…😆 Keep building…and earning those skill points. 😎👍🏾

[@carsonduder8129]

Can you show us how to remove paint from beginning to end?

[@modelcarvideos5829]

👍🏻👍🏻

[@chriscallen6897]

I really like how this turned out brother. Excellent job!

[@modelcarvideos5829]

Thanks Chris!

[@skipsmessyworkbench]

WOW!!! Matt! It looks great! I love the color of the body, but not too keen with the contrast between the body and fenders. Both colors are nice, just not together, but hey...the car looks absolutely fantastic!!! NICE JOB!!! By the way...what color is the body. I'm doing a 1932 3-Window coupe and I might want to use a similar color for the roof?

[@robertreynolds9607]

You really hit a home run with this one! The colors work great, very appropriate for the year. Show quality for sure!

[@frizzosmodels]

Awesome looks like a Georgia peach. I have a few classic cars I want to build. I will try MCW paint with hardeners. Your car has a fantastic finish🤘👍

[@RoadRunnergarage8570]

Nice job on the paint!!

[@malcolmbolton1473]

'The Great Gatsby',reminds me of those movies,awesome build matt,you should try building the Testors or Italeri '32 Cadillac Fleetwood V-16,built that one a couple of years back,of all the model cars I've built since 1984,by far my best work,great kit,cheers

[@KitchenTableScaleModels]

Wasn’t sure about the colors but by the end of the video it grew on me. Really classic looking. Have this kit in my stash. Love the old prewar luxury cars. Built a Monogram ‘32 Caddy and need to do more.

[@PlasticImaginationWorkshop]

That turned out really nice, great job. I really like the color's and especially the wheel color, really neat build. Have a great day. -David

[@greybeardmodels]

That’s worked out really neat given the age of the kit. Nice build. Cheers Bob 👍🍻

[@mattomon1045]

the vet i made And it did have coil springs but a Pocher Alfa Romeo 1932 Spider Touring Gran Sport has a working cam and valves

[@craigwellsjr3968]

Great job Matt. I turned out beautifully. And to answer your question about riding in a rumble seat. I did back in my younger days. A friend of my dad, built a 32 Ford with a rumble seat. I'm sure glad it didn't rain that day. 😁😁

[@thescalemodelcarguychannel8681]

Matt we couldn't have picked a better Modeler to build this kit and your color combinations are a perfect choice for this era car! I love it it's absolutely beautiful brother!

[@Enigma-Sapiens]

That's a pretty pink and tan paint job! ... 😉 With those colors, copper-colored wheels would look nice?

[@kevinsmith7697]

That’s the kind of model you put on your mantle, that way you can enjoy it while watching the tube! Nice job man! 🤠🇺🇸

[@mathewcruce517]

Hi Matt just to give you and any body else that still use Testors paints the price is going to sky-rocket on or before May 16-17 by 46% !

[@kensawicki7624]

Perfect! "And I even like the color. "

[@modelcarvideos5829]

Thanks! It was fun building something so old.

[@davidchin350]

Very nice Lincoln Matt. I love red/maroon spoked wheels.

[@6TEESRULE]

That turned out to a beautiful build. Outstanding work Matt. MPC or not that car is gorgeous! Dan

[@pizzamanmodels9989]

Darn fine model building Matt. I especially like the golf club door opening.

[@edwarddillon4950]

Right on Mat! Looks like it came out of 1927 Dealer Showroom.

[@memorylanemodelcars]

The Gang Buster's Series kits are All Great Matt. You'll Want to Build All 5 of them

[@panzerpete4389]

Great combination of Colors , I think I’ll get one on my next trip to the hobby shop fantastic build.

[@johnlanger7852]

go with magnesium for the spokes that would look awesome or maybe red spokes I had a bicycle when I was a kid with red spokes.

[@robertsalanon2909]

Très beau modele ,très soigné ...Belle réussite pour belle collection !! Félicitations ...

[@robertcates4066]

You may find the space between the firewall and radiator is wrong for t h e hood to work right I moved my radiator back just a scoche,

[@raythackston1960]

The little door on the side was put there for your golf clubs. yes, I have ridden in a rumble seat, and it is bumpy as hell and the seat is not very comfortable.

[@almoffat7504]

Wonderful job Matt the colour looks great 👍🇦🇺

[@calvingifford9442]

Gorgeous model! Turned out beautifully!!

[@kimskustomgarage9578]

That came out great Matthew, really nice build. I really like these big luxuary 20`s and 30`cars :-D

Oh, and the colors are great :-)

Matt it is an elegant looking model and your color combination was spot on.

Really cool build Matt, the colors work well together.

[@Paulthediecastguy]

A fantastic build. Great build as always.

[@davidtaylor5529]

spokes? wood grain dark brown ... accent stripe on side

[@FMChimera]

Burgundy has more of a brown note to it, maroon tends towards a deeper red.

[@davidparsleyscustomscaleemerge]

The wheels are fantastic! It set's the car off really well.

[@RoadRunnergarage8570]

The chassis looks great too!!

[@onixfieroandscalemodelworks]

Looks great. The colors really work well together. I agree that the tougher kits just make you better. I’m working on a 1938 opel admiral cabriolet that’s somewhat similar to your car. Those pre and postwar cars are really something.

[@fredlesage6832]

Looks Awesome Matt 👌 😎

Came out fantastic Matt!

[@josephsantos6063]

Looks good MATTHEW 👍

[@timrobison2647]

man that came out sweet!

[@christesta2521]

Very impressive build Matt. Love that golf club storage area. Only the high end cars had them. The color scheme is awesome. I'll have to try the hardner in my paint. Again Matt this build to me is museum quality. Your really taking on the tougher builds. Can't wait to see your next project.

[@garyslentzii2796]

Excellent fitment of the hood, golf club door and rumble seat. Knocked it out of the park. I love the finish of those paints. 👍🏻

[@michaelcooke2559]

Wonderful work. Everything with the model looks great. You did an outstanding job building that one. That is definitely a very nice one for the shelf. You have definitely improved your skills on that one. Thanks for sharing.

[@biker_mike50]

Killer build

[@petermerz2704]

Looks awesome Matt! Love the colour scheme, it works well on the model. Like the hinged engine covers, the stash door and the rumble seat. Like the trunk on the back too! Bravo Matt. Thanks for sharing! Happy days and model on! 😎

[@mityasokolay4177]

amazing! This looks gorgeous! It would be awesome if you made more videos with cars from that time! My dad has a 32 ford street rod and it has rumble seats, so yeah, ive ridden in a rumble seat!)

[@deenjoan9938]

Really nice job after seeing you build this kit thinking I might want to build one myself ,The paint looks great all around a nice build well done

[@galaxiesteve7139]

That turned out really nice! The burgundy/maroon wheels really set the colors off nice. The thumbnail had me fooled thinking it was a video of a real car being sold at a classic car dealer.

[@blueoxmodelshop3405]

That’s came out awesome Matt!! I personally love the colors!!

[@mikelheureux2114]

The car looks fantastic! Your colour selection is spot on and the opening hood, rumble seat and other details really make it a special kit to build. Way to go Matt great job.
