Roadrunnertwice Posted March 3, 2019 Posted March 3, 2019 Inspired by a John DeChancie science fiction trilogy I gave my sons a couple of years ago. I read the novels in the 1980s because, despite all their media exposure, 57 Chevies have always been my favorite! The body is polished, unpainted red plastic. I sanded and polished out the Fuel Injection emblems and added foil, part-box mirrors, and other details. The wheels come from Revell's 57 2-door Bel-Air sedan. The interior is painted blue with pink carpet as described in the book. When I can figure out a the best way to do interior pics, I might give it a try. I've built every 57 Chevy kit I know about. This is one of the simpler ones, but it's the easiest to get looking good!
spencer1984 Posted March 4, 2019 Posted March 4, 2019 Very cool! This project has been on my "to do" list for a bit, if you do get some interior pics I'd love to see how it came out.
stavanzer Posted March 5, 2019 Posted March 5, 2019 I loved those books. I'd forgotten about the Chevy. "Sic 'em, Fido"
