Merry Christmas.

[@brandonb1681]

Merry Christmas to you and your family.

[@brandonb1681]

I would gladly use the Hot Wheels decals. I remember my friend Tom and myself enjoying Thundershift 500 hours upon hours. TY for the build Chris.

[@rickr442]

Tooling done during AMTs best ‘new tool’ era, late ‘9s. Very accurate for that era’s high tech west coast hot rods. Boyd Coddington was a leader in that style but Chuck Lombardi at California Street Rods was also prominent at the time. Good job, Chris…

[@vincentrusso4514]

Thanks for all the model reviews!! Merry Christmas everyone!!

[@randytaylor1258]

Good choice with the metallic purple, Chris. Gorgeous! Doesn't need flames.

[@hpiguy]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@joekrim6557]

Retro Mod looks great. Love the sand interiors and top

[@bigbow62]

Very cool old school... the color & flames are perfect 🙂 Thank you and Merry Christmas 🎅

[@hpiguy]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@r.a.monigold9789]

This is a Goldilocks build - not too much, not too little, it's JUST RIGHT. Thanks again and Merry Christmas 2022!

[@hpiguy]

Same to you!

[@lylebriggs923]

Great color an what a nice looking build

[@diecastify]

When all the parts of this kit are shown, I really appreciate the efforts and meticulousness you put into the prioject! That's amazing. Have a great holiday!

[@danielkemp4801]

Very nice and I like the paint. This kit will be on my Christmas list for 2023!! Great video and keep up the great work. Merry Christmas to you and your family.

[@hpiguy]

Thanks, you too!

[@laurentbouveyron5362]

joyeux Noël

[@kyledehartsscaleworks]

What a great kit. I really appreciate what Round 2 does for the hobby.

[@joewilkowski923]

Purple was a great choice, made the flames pop! Not over decaled either. Great touch!

[@AccountWasHacked]

Very cool build!! I think the air filter on the engine would look nice in red.

[@charliebowman785]

Fascinating model. The paint is so cool. The engine looks so massive and the whole thing is wonderful. I liked it very much.

[@maryfiltz800]

What a sharp looking Phantom - thanks for the build.

[@hpiguy]

Thanks for watching!

[@antazmodelkits]

Bravo elle est magnifique

[@TheJhine5588]

Man, I love the history lesson in the description!! Definitely hitting that subscribe button now, thank you!

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

Cool, can't go wrong with a 32 ...... 👍🙂

[@kornkid-xc8qv]

I love that particular build you did I will love to build that car as well

[@MarkMeadows90]

I didn't know you could use Tamiya PS sprays for plastic model kits. I always thought it was used for RC car bodies and lexan. Glad you didn't have any issues with the paint. Love the metallic purple. Nicely done!

[@deenjoan9938]

They make Tamiya for Plastic Models and a different type of Tamiya paint for RC kits

[@hpiguy]

Yes, it works perfectly fine. The R/C PS (polycarbonate) paints are simply more flexible and designed to bond with the lexan R/C bodies. They work just as well on styrene plastic.

[@timryan1785]

@@hpiguy Thanks for educating me on the PS paints! It's always good to learn how many options there is available! I have a local RC shop that has lots of this on hand. I just didn't know if it would work with styrene. Merry Christmas Chris!! 🤓

[@davidpayne4315]

Really great looking kit Happy Holidays Chris stay safe and positive keep up the amazing work

[@BIGJIM1934]

I like it without the flames. The only other thing that I would have done differently is I would have color matched the frame. In 1932 the frame was viewed as part of the body. Thanks for the review as always.

[@davidhinkson8856]

Sounds like you're using some Christmas themed music with this build - I must admit the background music you use is one of the things that drew me to this site during Covid lockdowns two years ago, as well as the subjects and quality of the builds. All the best to you and yours this holiday season.

[@derrellreynolds6226]

Awesome! Thanks for sharing 👍

[@robertcates4066]

That chassis is pretty amazing. I really like the engine, I thought you might have trouble getting the dash between the door panels!! Another AWESOME video Chris!!!

[@michaelcooke2559]

Very nice looking build. The color choice is great. Definitely a nice kit. Merry Christmas to you and yours. Thanks for sharing.

[@craigwellsjr3968]

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year Chris. Can't wait to see what next year's reviews and builds.

[@charlesmcclure5994]

You give a really great job Chris on this one looks great 👍👍

[@paulgertsch7105]

Great tip using socket to hold the tires for sanding 👍

[@hpiguy]

Thanks 👍

[@M0UNTAINEER]

It's a parts box dream 👌 It def. wouldn't look good green

[@richardlee1092]

Really neat build, Chris! BTW, Merry Christmas to you and your family (a tad bit in advance tho!)

[@hpiguy]

Thanks, you too!

[@modelcars2978]

Gorgeous build brother. Merry Christmas to you and yours. 🤟🤠👍

[@EHCreative]

Been wondering about this kit. Thanks for the great review! Merry Christmas!

[@johngligo4049]

Very well done on your '32 Ford Hot Rod Chris! I too am a fan of Home Improvement. Speaking of Home Improvement, I grabbed an AMT '53 Studebaker Starliner kit and I'm going to be replicating Wilson's Dad's car! Happy Holidays!

[@hpiguy]

Right on!

[@robertjensen1438]

Merry Christmas, everyone

[@Merylstreep1949]

That frame assembly and wheels would look bitchin with pretty much any car from 1900 to 1949. Nice job 👏 👍 👌 😀

[@hensleyshobbies-doug7761]

Mighty cool Hoss, good deal! And the 4.6 L cobra engine is a modern day "cammer" , at least that's what I would think anyways, the old 427 SOHC engine is what the older fellars called a "cammer", bc of the overhead cams, well that 4.6 is a cammer too except it's a DOHC, badass engines, guys probably get just as much if not more HP out of it as the old 427 SOHC. Anywho, Merry Christmas to you and yours Chris! 🎄🧑‍🎄🤙✌️

[@seanbriankirby7646]

This kit was full of cool parts. That's a Hallock-style windshield. The steering wheels is a Banjo wheel, which was originally available on '30s Fords; in this instance, it is of a smaller hot rod-style diameter. The wheels are Halibrand-style, but done to a modern, bigger diameter.

[@FlyFish483]

hello thanks for doing a speed way car video mate from the other video

[@williamwagaman9538]

Hey Merry Christmas keep building everyone

[@SolamenteVees]

Do you ever scribe panel lines? Thanks for the great channel.

[@hpiguy]

Sometimes. Thanks!

[@paulgertsch7105]

Is there a advantage to using modpog for the clear parts. Over using canape glue?

[@hpiguy]

I simply prefer it but everyone should use the items they like using. It's thicker so it stays in place where I spread it, and it holds the glass in place for me while it dries. It remains semi flexible so glass doesn't pop out when I spread a body over a chassis. It's cheap and much easier to find in any craft store. It also dries in minutes in the food dehydrators I use to speed up my building. I've never used canopy glue so I have no idea if it cleans up as easily as mod podge or dries as fast.

[@tomsherwood4650]

When I was about 5 years old my dad built a 32 Ford hot rod kit that might have been an AMT. 1963/4? I believe it was black with flame decals and no hood. He was not into model cars really so I think that might have been the only one he built. I of course got into it later and built some hot rods and later 60s production muscle car kits. Sure they were cheap but a kid on a nickel dime budget did not afford alot.

[@billybleedscrimsonblood9478]

What kind of glue is that? You just paint it on?

[@hpiguy]

I like Plastruct Bondene, Modelroundup carries it.

[@Sylent1337]

I've been thinking of getting back into building kits again, but i don't have any where to paint inside, we converted our garage into a bedroom, and can't really paint outside in the winter, so my question is would one of those paint booth's make it safe to paint inside if it filters out a window?

[@timryan1785]

The paint booths help, but you will still have some fumes to deal with, even after painting somewhere else, the parts "gassing out" afterward still can leave quite the fumes that may be offensive to "non modelers" (the wife). Acrylics on the other hand can be sprayed inside with little residual scent when used with a paint booth. I use my little one like Chris has inside often with no issues when using acrylics with my airbrush. I have a larger paint booth in the shop for lacquers and enamels, whether it's spray cans or air brush.

[@hpiguy]

They are only to catch overspray, and will vent outside but they are not vapor booths and you'll still get stink and fumes in the house if you use spray cans or harsh chemical paints. You can always get an airbrush system from Harbor Freight and use acrylic model paints. Vent it out a window and you'll have little to no issues with dangerous fumes.

"I don't think so Tim"

[@ArockinyardsaleLLC]

Love watching these but music is really bad, try something different

[@hpiguy]

Thanks for offering to pay the music licensing fee for me so that I don't have to use free music from KZbin! That's so cool of you. The average BMG and ASCAP license for a channel like mine runs from $15,000 to $75,000 EACH, per year, plus royalties and fees for each video depending on the licensed music chosen running from $2,500 to $50,000 per song. If you want to send the the license fees in for the workshop just let me know! Thanks man! So cool of you to offer!

[@urbanurchin5930]

Isn't it amazing that "some" people don't have enough common sense to know that you don't have to use the decals included in the kit ??

[@hpiguy]

The amount some scream about Coke or HotWheels decals you'd think they were being forced to use them. Both licenses pull in a lot of sales from collectors of those brands, which gives R2 more money to repop all those 'lost' kits we want to see again and create new kits as well.
