Ice Tub |
||
---|---|---|---|
Built by: Steve Hammann / Carlinville, IL. Here
is the third in my trilogy of Ice T inspired builds. As with the Ice
Bucket, this bash derives it’s name from topless sedans being known in
hotrod circles as “tubs”. The
donor kit for this one is a Revell ’31 Ford Tudor Sedan with the top
and doors removed. The rear seat was replaced with an ice cooler for
those long weekends at the beach and tappers were installed out back to
service the onboard beer
kegs. A souped up flathead V8 and ’32 Ford grill shell were added from
an AMT deuce kit and the headers are cut down from 4 tube pieces with
velocity stacks added for dump tubes. Paint
is Testors Yellow with a Clear Pearl top coat. Wheels are from a pair of
Maisto diecast motorcycles. The surf board is a modified piece from the
Revell ’31 Ford Woody kit painted with Dupli-Color Metalcast and the
surf board mount is scratch built from the header tube left overs. |
