Ford Supply

Along with the MMGS I made this other little RPM kit based on the Ford Model T. As with the MMGS it is a rather simple kit with not a lot of detail. Thin plastic rods were replaced with brass rod. MV lenses were added along with butyrate plastic for the instrument on the dash. The biggest detail was replacing the canvas top. Braces were made using thin brass strip and craft tissue for the actual canvas. A punch and die set was used to create the grommets for the canvas top. Fuel drum was replaced from the kit with a Tamiya item.

My usual method of weathering was applied. Tamiya paints were used for painting the vehicle and Vallejo acrylics used on the canvas top.

Plans for this little cutie is a supply diorama using the Whippet that has already been posted on track-link.
