Rick Black, Las Cruces NM writes: The 1930 Roadster was built from parts from several kits and the Station Wagon I got at that swap meet.
My latest project finished in late 2019 is a 1930 Town Sedan that I bought at a swap meet, already assembled but with a poor paint job. A total "restoration" was required. . After assembling and re-assembling many times, it is finally "done". I learned that if you don't follow the assembly instructions, you have to take the car apart and assemble in the right order! Another thing I learned is that after painting, it's a good idea to "chase out" the screw holes to make assembly easier. I use a vice grip on one of the longer screws to clean up the threads. Then when assembling with new screws, they go in SO much easier. Posted 02/04/20 |

Gary Bricken of Elmendorf, Texas, has been building Hubley Fords for about 30 years, in some unusual configurations. These are relatively "stock" Model A's but he's also built jalopies, race cars, and other makes. Updated 04/28/16 |

Ove Alm - Sweden - 06/21/13
Member Ove Alm, Sweden recently found these two older Hubley models
and plans to restore them.
You're never too old to enjoy Model A's, even models!
Richard Palmer from South Africa modeled these examples. Nice to see that members are still putting these neat models together. Note the background painting - it really makes the models seem more real! Updated 05/31/2012 |

Glenn Johnson, a member of the Orange County Chapter of Southern California, built the Hubley models below. He owned and operated Glenn Johnson Architectural Models Inc. for 40 years before selling the business in 2003 and retiring.
If you look closely at the pictures, you may notice some models that Hubley never made but were specially created by Glenn. Thank you Glenn for sending in these photos! |

1931 Victoria built by Ewald Stein, The Netherlands. Browsing the Internet I came across your pleasing site. As you ask for photo's on Hubley models, I'll be happy to make my contribution, even though I'm not a MAFCA-member. The pictures feature a 1930 Ford A Victoria and the original box it came in. As a kid I got this wonderful metal-kit in the early '70's as a present and I cherished it ever since. A few years ago I completely restored it but lack of information (those were my pre-Internet days) may have resulted in some incorrect detailing. Only the small lights in front of the doors are missing. Posted 11/16/04 |
