A bit of a progress update. Got some paint laid on and am now heading towards final installation, plumbing and detailing on the chassis and engine.

What you've done so far looks great. Very nice.

Looks great so far. The small details bring it to another level

Finished up the engine detailing and put some paint on...still have to second coat the silver and put the fan belt on but I'm stoked to be able to finally add some colour

Thanks for the positive feedback guys.

Hey all, its been a long while since I have shared anything on this forum so I thought I'd share a few pics of my project. It's a 1951 Corbitt Tall boy. I've been slowly making all the bits and pieces for the last twelve months and I'm finally almost at the point where I can start painting her and adding d

Thats looking sweet!! Look forward to seeing more.

Thats looking super clean so far.

Hello again all. Thought Id stop in and share a progress update on my Buick project. Ive finally finished both taillight housings and shaped the fin behind them to closer resemble the Buick rear. Ive also added evergreen strips around the side window openings to represent the stainless steel trim and made up some quarter vent windows,extended the doors by rescribing the panel lines and also laminated the decklid to give it that slight hump and longer lid length the Buick has then rescribed the gaps to be nice and deep. Hope you enjoy the pics. Any comments or suggestions, good or bad are welcome.

Looking at the last pic Id say youre right on!!

This has been one of my favourite recent build threads lately!! Ive gotta say I really like the two you were trying, but the way youve decided still makes this one awesome beast!

Look forward to seeing more pics, great work so far.

Looking cool !!

Just a couple of update pics of the work Ive been doing on the front bumper. I used the lower part of the front bar from a 58 Chev and the top part is from the custom grille/bumper option in the AMT 51 Chev kit which also has 57 Chev bumper ends to flow around the side of the front guards to the wheelarches .

I like it so far!

Thats looking really good so far.

Cool build so far. Ill be following this build fir sure. M!! Cool build so far. Ill be following this build fir sure. M!!

Awesome start man!!

Thanks for the interst and comments guys...its definitely helping me keep on track with the build. Im considering making a 57 Olds front bumper rather than the 56 Buick as Im not a fan of that design...and that way I can keep putting off making the right taillight housing for a little longer lol.

Looks great so far..you make the weathering look easy!

Looking pretty cool so far.

And a couple more pics .
