I bought this kit at a show but is it all there?? But wait there's more!!

I've heard that you have to be very careful buying an open kit at a show and this video kinda proves this point!

Looks like you have a mix of the Revell kit and parts from the AMT 34 kit. Thanks for the video mate.

[@voices7436]

Was thinking the same.

[@fredbasic1918]

All the white parts are Revell. The darker parts are AMT/Round2.

[@ronstewart9792]

Matt your body is ok. The frame fills that gap on 32's. The extra fenders are from the 34 Ford coupe. Ron

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

Yep, that's what I was thinking Ron.

[@michaelcooke2559]

Anytime you buy an open kit at a model show it is a “crap shoot,” but we all do it and will again. Sometimes you get lucky, while other times you do not. It is still worth building. You will figure out something. You could consider using some Evergreen to make two taillights. Thanks for sharing.

[@modelcarvideos5829]

👍🏻👍🏻

[@williamwagaman9538]

Matthew you're missing the four bar front suspension parts that is also all the gray parts is from the AMT 34 Ford 5 Window Coupe

[@danrosenello4847]

I’ve got a box full of spare parts for those ‘32 Fird kits. If you decide to build it, maybe make a list of the parts you’re missing. I’m sure I’ve got them !

[@voices7436]

That's happened to me several times getting kits from shows or thrift shops or whatnot. Most of the time it's added goodies - even found another kit in it's entirety more than a few times. All in all, missing or damaged parts allow you to improvise! 🙂

[@troystahnke6441]

Matt, this is where you become creative on those rear taillights.😊 I wouldn't lose sleep over it..suggestion on taillights, how bout using something simple like out of a semis trailer kit!?!?..those kits always have extra red clear lights in those kits. And different trailer kits have different lights. Something to think about pal

[@jeromepierce]

I love missing parts models. It’s fun creating my own designs. Have fun.

[@BrianSanders-tn7pi]

Hi , just a suggestion. I am sure that you have other model cars in your stash so see if one of them has any red plastic for that kits tailights. Then take some cuttings off of that sprue for the missing one's from this kit , and sand them to shape. Good luck.

[@glmfaa1276]

Check the chrome trees for the tailights.

[@rondill1956]

I use the little gems for finger nails. Just paint transparent red. Sometimes you can find them already red.

[@funken079]

That color looks like the plastic AMT uses . The items on the chrome tree are front end suspension parts. I also have the Revell Monogram version open but complete. Tail lights are red and I happen to have a spare set I got in a parts lot if you need it Matthew.

[@daviddykes3026]

Yup, 1934 Ford by AMT fenders. Look at the front of those fenders and you'll see where the grill/radiator surround tucks down in-between the front fenders - completely different than a '32 Ford. The reason the newly-reissued Revell '32 Ford Tudor resembles the 3-window is because it's built on the same platform, as is the 5-window & roadster '32 Fords in the series. The roadster came first back in 1998.

[@samuelvasquez8170]

Do you have another kit that has the taillights or similar? If so, you can make a mold of them by using some aluminum foil. Place the foil over the light and press it down and then remove it carefully. There should be an impression on the foil. Fill the the impression with super glue or use some of that material that you have cure with blue light.

[@lennonjames3871]

Use to luv building them there too expensive now a days.i have sum old one that sitting on shelf I'll never get rid of 👍🏻

[@judchapman1239]

Those fenders are from the amt 34 I think ?

[@allenmuckleroy5040]

Darker fenders are from a 1933 / '34 Ford. The 2 seats are a stock and a custom. The black dash is also from a 1933 / '34 Ford.

[@ab3fan]

Do a custom build and use some tail light from your spare parts box.

[@chuckjorgensenjr4095]

Looks like you got everything except the Tires. None of the 6 tires that were in the box are the right ones for the kit. I'll send out a set of the proper tires that go with that kit. All the darker colored parts came from the AMT 34 Coupe

[@chuckjorgensenjr4095]

The tail lights just glue to the surface of the body. I might have a set of tail lights as well

[@Johnny-tt8zc]

Could they possibly be on the chrome tree🤷🏼‍♂️

[@aaronlancaster195]

I'd still call it a win for $15. If anything you could cut some clear red sprue, chuck it in a drill & shape some custom tail lights with sandpaper.

[@1968fordman]

Looks like you added some parts to the parts box, along with a nearly complete 32.👍

[@dirtroadcinderella1854]

The taillights just glue on to the body or fenders. I probably have spare ones if you need them.

[@howardheno1628]

I've got bags of hot rod taillights I bring you some at the North Charleston show. Replacas and miniatures resin caster has them too. You may have met Norm at a show. His stuff is primo. You would think it was styrene.

[@glydin1]

I designed that most of when I worked there. It was originally a 3 version kit. A highboy roadster, an open roadster, or a full fender street rod. Yeah, you've been had by the seller. Not the correct fenders. Someone exchanged parts from other 32 kit.

[@brianlewis6926]

I'm pretty sure the latest release of that kit is the kit with yellow coupe in the upper left corner and the blue coupe with the red devil on the grill in the middle of box

[@squirrel8037]

$15 is a bargain if just missing a few parts. IF you have a sealed Revell ‘32 5 window kit, it has spares for tail lights and front suspension parts.

[@christesta2521]

Not a bad kit Matt. Looks like the guys in the community may have some parts to send you to complete this kit. Its worth building. Some of the fun is locating and/or fabricating some of the parts. You even gained some extra AMT parts from a '34 Ford. Happy Fourth to you and the family.

[@squirrel8037]

You’re missing the kit tires, tail lights, and front suspension radius rod arms. The colored parts are from another kit. Modelhaus #190 are whitewall tires that were originally Blackwell kit tires. Use the kit clear sprue and make your own tail lights, just paint clear red.

[@robmeadows3114]

If you're in Upstate SC any time soon I'll swap you a sealed one for that. I have a Revell 32 with a short shot chassis that I need a parts kit for.

[@russellpoland6637]

All of those gray parts are from the AMT 34 Ford kit. It looks like most of the Revell kit is there. I would trade You that kit for a complete kit? It is build worthy. Good Luck

[@JimFlanagan4206]

I bought an open box AMT Ford Ranger at a show. I looked through it before I bought it and thought everything was there. I went to build it a couple months later and the entire chassis was missing 😅 I never buy open kits anymore.

[@davidchin350]

Search your parts bin or fabricate it. Use any plastic and paint the colors you need onto it. Open box is challenging unless it's cheap and knowingly missing parts is a possibility.😟 Enjoy ure 4th🇺🇲

[@KBCC_Garage]

Happy 4th to you and the family! Appreciate you sharing this “Buyer Beware”edition of MCV. ✌🏽😎👍🏾

[@danielpaulsness6951]

Nice kits 😎

[@garyslentzii2796]

Pre-Kitbashed kit

[@timbrown9731]

Just stumbled across your channel I’m out of Sacramento. Just wanted to say hi sir, not sure if you know who Steve Maganate is but he’s pretty huge into model cars like this also.

[@modelcarvideos5829]

Hey Tim! Yeah I really like Steve M.

[@howardheno1628]

Looks like you got it all except tires plus some extra parts. You can probably access better tires anyway

[@williambayer1146]

Build that Johan Mercedes Benz? No worries there LOL!

[@donstevenson2660]

For our own benefit, and for any future buyers, all it takes is a quick note on the inside of the box when you " borrow" or substitute parts.

[@howardheno1628]

Know your 30s Fords . The rails have a reveil on the side and it showed on the built car. Revell chose to follow the way the 1/1 car is built in this rendition. The body won't fit against the fenders without modification. Something folks would do in the olden days. It was called chaneling which is dropping the body over the rails.

[@onixfieroandscalemodelworks]

Its the luck of the draw. I picked up a mpc fiero kit at a show, the seller told me he didnt know if it was complete, so he let me have it for 10 bucks. I got it home and went over it and found it was all there. So you never know.

[@sambaldwin3730]

I'm sure somebody in your subs has extra tail lights. Start building and they will show up.

[@user-bt3fy5gd3n]

I think those fenders are 4 a 40 ford brother. 😊

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

👍👍

[@macksalesky6798]

Will I like the music straight off to bat

[@howardheno1628]

Nice aftermarket taillights available for hotrods.

[@paulcasarez404]

Their a model guy out here in Glendale Arizona marks model mart one time at the local just sell it automotive swap meet he had some kits for sale for 19 bucks and it felt like it had everything inside as soon as I gave him the money he walked on to go look around and I oped it and it was filled with empty parts trees and noting to even build i followed the guy and demand my money back and fool was like all sales final so I walked back to his space and took a few kits he had unopened and his partner was like hey hey I showed him the kit I got and he didn't say anything

[@prumus99]

That kit is all mixed up 😂

[@craigwellsjr3968]

I hate when you get a new kit and there parts missing. Or warped on old or new kits.

[@dustymojave]

Hey Matthew. I would buy those gray 34 Ford Coupe fenders from you. I have a 34 Pickup I plan to put 34 passenger car fenders and grille on with the pickup cab. I've been wanting to that since the 1960s. I'll PM my email.

[@modelcarvideos5829]

👍🏻👍🏻

[@MikeJBlues]

Dab of chrome , dob of red . Lol, wallah

[@doublenickelbob]

Maybe its chrome and you paint red?

[@richarddevier1922]

looks like 36 ford fenders

[@rcrai0547]

You need to develop a better understanding of the Fords of the 30's. So.much for the 'net being used for commumication, the unknowing others dumber. Since when do all model car kits have red plastic tail lights? DUMB!

[@OFFCODEV2]

Well atleast it was just $15 and not $50 lol
