novadose71 Posted August 19, 2007 Share Posted August 19, 2007 Long and low R/M 59 Caddy. Inspired by Maurice's Cadillac, on Northern Exposure. Had interior and chassis painted and assembled, body painted Mocha Brown, clearcoat started to crack, got frustrated and it went into a box for a few years. Rummaging through boxes one day, thought it was too close to finished to leave it in this state. Into the Super Clean it went, which also softened the plastic on top of fins! So I decided to make it a mild custom. Rounded top of fins. Shaved, nosed and decked(I think). Late 90's Dodge orange basecoat w/ fade highlights and HoK candy Tangerine, BMF'd then clearcoated. Slammers Blackforce wheels and tires. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mr moto Posted August 23, 2007 Share Posted August 23, 2007 That looks really great! My favorite thing about it? The subtle two tone on the upholstery! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

41CHEVY Posted August 27, 2007 Share Posted August 27, 2007 AWESOME JOB GOOD COLOR and GREAT INTERIOR!!! A fyi for those into caddies.. the small section between headlight bezel and fender is body color.For some reason Revell molded the front fenders short. It does not hurt your car though!!

Randy Kern Posted August 27, 2007 Share Posted August 27, 2007 That is gorgeous, Rob. That's one of my favorite colors, and there's plenty of sheet styrene to show it off! It turned out very cool, and the interior looks great. Nice! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
