A.K.A "The DUKE, The GURU, and The HEAD MINION Build a COKE Delivery Van".
Yes.....all three of us will attempt to build an AMT 1923 Ford Model T delivery van with the COCA COLA decals.
In 1923, the slogan for COKE was "Enjoy Thirst".
I have a kit ordered, and hopefully, it will be here early next week.
If our other two participants have their kits on hand, go ahead and post the pics, if you'd like.
This will be an open-ended duel build, and all the progress pics for all three builds will go in this thread.
Thanks for joining this duel, Joe and Mark.
So....pop the top on a cold Coke and LET THE FUN BEGIN!

That's awesome. Nice to see you had such a great dinner and time with the wife.
I started the engine on mine; only got that far before my wife came home. Then I cooked dinner for her: carnitas burritos.

So I had a free morning and headed to the Eagles Nest to start my T!!! Squaring up the frame as you build it was interesting to say the least without very good instructions or attachment points but I got it there. Ran some plastic rod through the axles so I had something to hold onto and suspend it while the paint dries!!!   |
