juergen Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 hi guys!!! after the finish from my impala - i get the next model to built. i order´d from scale equipment ltd steelies with deep trim rigs and baby moons. they looks pretty good on the homepage. but real i must see that the deep trim rigs are not so nice i think. so i turn´d on my late and take them new out of aluminum. here is the pic: on the right side the original. left and in the middle are the rims i made with different deap for the front and rear. so they looks out when they are finished: and that style i want´s to built: happy modelling !!! greets juergen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
george 53 Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 Well Jurg, you DID say you built more in the winter, I guess you weren't jokein!!! I like that ol "If they ain't right, I'll fix them" attitude! That's the mark of a true modeler! But then again you've shown me just WHAT a TRUE modeler you REALLY are! I look forward to seein this Bad Boy take shape! You GO Daddy-O!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Modlbldr Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 Juergen- That is going to be a beautiful build. I like the work you did on those wheels. Any chance you could do a set for me????? I love them. I'll keep an eye on this one. Later- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

juergen Posted November 17, 2009 Author Share Posted November 17, 2009 hi guys !!! whow so nice from you that post´s. i´m happy you like the wheels and the style. after any time of posing - i think the truck looks a little bit aggressive with a top chop. so i do it and this is the look of the cap now: greets juergen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
george 53 Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 OH YEAH Jurg, the chop MADE it!!! I chopped mine and it TOTALLY made a difference! The roofs on them rascals are TOO high anyway in my opinion. This is already lookin good.Funny what a little off the top can do! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harry P. Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 I would have flipped the colors. The "heavier" color (blue) on the bottom, the "lighter" color (silver) on top. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Modellpularn Posted November 25, 2009 Share Posted November 25, 2009 That candy blue is gorgeous, Juergen! Hmm, this is a very nice kit, not a bad idea to reverse the colors, or do the whole truck in candy blue.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldscool Posted November 25, 2009 Share Posted November 25, 2009 I have never seen this kit chopped and I have to say that is one of the best chop jobs I have ever seen! Nice paint too. oldscool - insomniac Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
