Bills72sj Posted April 9, 2020 Posted April 9, 2020 Wow! That looks awesome. I like the looks of '70s Olds.
DoctorLarry Posted April 9, 2020 Posted April 9, 2020 T Bird chassis? I have one sitting along with a Monte Carlo. I'm trying to finish the Buicks first.
gks1964 Posted April 9, 2020 Posted April 9, 2020 Stunning! Great paint and decal work. Looks flawless.
bbowser Posted April 9, 2020 Posted April 9, 2020 That's a beauty! Great work on the paint and decals.
catpack68 Posted April 9, 2020 Posted April 9, 2020 Awesome work! Are those the AMT wheels out of the T-Bird kit?

I’m not understanding what you mean. There is aluminum around the back edge of the bumper in the fender that also goes across the frt under the headlights and grille.ir are you meaning how the bumper don’t fit quite right?

DoctorLarry Posted April 10, 2020 Posted April 10, 2020 There is aluminum there that was usually covered up by decals.

Maybe my eyes arent seeing it correctly.
yellowsportwagon Posted April 10, 2020 Author Posted April 10, 2020 Mark is supposed to look like the aluminum covering that was there.

The ref picture proves it. Sometimes when you make a model look too realistic, people think you made a mistake on the model and you have to end up defending yourself with real car photos. I've been through that before.
gks1964 Posted April 10, 2020 Posted April 10, 2020 That was one beautiful car!! So is your version Tim! Gerald
john843 Posted April 10, 2020 Posted April 10, 2020 Tim, that is truly fantastic! The work you did giving it a little more "shoulder" in the quarters look's tremendous. Best one of these I've seen and one of those builds that I can stare at and enjoy waay to long! John
