After finishing my 1940 Ford SD, I thought I could build one more kit in 2012.

Like I have a factory stock 1951 Chevy alredy built, I decided to build one as a 1950's hotrod. Started on the 20th painting the body, and finished today. It's far from perfect, after all, it's just a three day build, and I never have the same care on building a modiffied car than I have building something factory stock, but I think that in general it turned out ok.

 

The paint is Tamiya Metallic Green over Tamiya Gun Metal.

 

Thanks for looking!!!

Great job Tulio.  I just did one stock but it took a lot longer than 3 days  .  Love the paint and wide whites.  That 6-banger looks good too.

Man that is sweet!  You got the 50s look going on.  Very smooth, and all in 3 days?  Nice work!

Tulio...I love this thing!  The stance, the colors, and your choice of engine and modifications are just right.   As always, very clean work...even if you were in a hurrry

So...you wanted to build it fast in case the Earth-consuming fireball did come?

 

It still looks better than anything that takes me a year to do.

That's excellent build.....In Three Days?! I can't get the engine finished in three days and you built whole car and it looks awesome. The paint and detail is incredible, like the stance too. Good work.
