Scott Glatstein
Minnetonka, Minnesota
Scott not only built Hubley’s classic 1/18 scale metal 1932 Duesenberg SJ Phaeton, but he piled on improvements including functioning hinges to display the hood open or closed, photo-etched metal screens in the hood panels, scratchbuilt tribar headlamps and rearview mirrors, a plumbed and wired engine, wood accents on the roof struts, and chrome trim on the fenders. The interior is upholstered with real leather, and Scott scratchbuilt the trunk using wood covered with red leather and added scratchbuilt hinges and clasps. He painted tis luxury ride with Splash Tungsten Silver and Gravity Ferrari Rosso Mugello topped with Splash 2K clear.
