damodelguy az Posted August 9, 2020 Share Posted August 9, 2020 57 chrysler kit, cut roof and deck lid to make a comino hauler. never liked the headlights on this car so i changed them to 58 chevy headlights. inner bed could maybe be from a mid 60s comino kit but mine was a bit nasty so might try making my own.

bobthehobbyguy Posted August 9, 2020 Share Posted August 9, 2020 Cool. Reminds me of the days when Budd Anderson did conversions like this (I think it was car modeler magazine). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doorsovdoon Posted August 9, 2020 Share Posted August 9, 2020 Interesting build. If it's any good to you, I have a pick up tub from the '70 Pontiac custom? It's no good to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve H Posted August 10, 2020 Share Posted August 10, 2020 Cool build. What colour are you thinking? I did a lowered 300 in a metallic burnt orange and thought it looked good. Keep it low! Love the Camino conversion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

espo Posted August 10, 2020 Share Posted August 10, 2020 I agree with all the others, always thought this would be a good body to make a hauler out of. Very long back deck looks almost like an 8 foot long bed. Maybe make it a 6 foot short bed ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
