Keep it going there Geoff, your doing this '57 Chevy lover proud??

You'll love my next build then, I've got the paint which was supplied by Mike at MCW finishes,I've got the Mr Color blue green metallic on order, it looks pretty close to the photos I've got of the interior.

Here’s a photo of the grille badge. The actual areas of color are smaller and there’s a lot of silver and maybe gold detail. Best option may actually be a decal from this photo. I’ll bet that’s how the mints did it

Luckily my next build comes with a decal for those emblems

Radio aerial fitted, I didn't like the plastic mast as it looked a little over scaled, so I cut it off, drilled the base and inserted a cut down dressmaking pin, the base was then re-chromed using Molotow liquid chrome. 

Only thing left to do now is airbrush the front and rear scripts on the bonnet and bootlid in gold, and a few decals in the engine bay then it will be posted in the "Under glass" section.
