A fairly recent build of my favorite big Chevy (and my birth year).
I gotta build a photo booth sometime, or a bird will interrupt my shooting sessions.

Very nice, Indeed!
How'd you do the grill?

Hi and thanks, Steve. I cut out the kit grille (pin vise drilling and dremel), and epoxied the Model Car Garage p.e. grille behind the shell. I also prayed a lot that the shell would stay intact the whole time I was butchering it up. Installing a billet grille in my 1/1 truck was easier!

Even good photos like these don't do the model justice.
Randy and his son churn some kickin' projects off their bench.
As for his concerns about a bird potentially ruining his photo sessions...think about it. Some guys agonize for hours about how to get that kind of realisim. Roll with it!

Very nice '55! Nice blend of C6 touches to it.
