ModelcarJR Posted January 9, 2022 Share Posted January 9, 2022 Just finished. Paint is Tamiya Coral Blue and Krylon Satin Ivory. PE grill and other PE. I struggled with the BMF on the exterior but got it on. Wheels are from the Revell 68 Dodge Charger (two sets of front wheels). Thanks for looking! 😎 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Classicgas Posted January 9, 2022 Share Posted January 9, 2022 Very well done, just curious as to the Keystones on a otherwise stock build? They look good, just curious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

espo Posted January 9, 2022 Share Posted January 9, 2022 Beautiful looking Nomad. I like the subject and especially the way you built this. Great color choice and paint finish. Clean trim and nicely detailed engine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ModelcarJR Posted January 10, 2022 Author Share Posted January 10, 2022 Thanks, All! I appreciate your comments! Lee, I just don't like the wide whites that are the two piece tires in the kit. I wanted to find some other wheels and tires but couldn't find any tires that would fit the wheels. The wheels came from some extra parts that I got when purchasing about a 50 kit lot. So I used the front wheels from two sets of wheels from the 68 Dodge Charger kit and turned the tires around from this kit, painted the whitewall inserts black, and used a thin whiteline decal from the 64 Chevy kit. Problem solved! Thanks for the question and thanks for looking! 😎 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bisc63 Posted January 10, 2022 Share Posted January 10, 2022 Once again, great job! It was fun to see this one come together. I really liked your other 56, but the colors on this one are so RIGHT. If that blue is anywhere near as pretty in real life as it is on my computer screen, it's simply gorgeous. WELL DONE. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They look good, just curious. It is a very nice build. I hope mine will turn out as nice whenever I get to it. BTW Keystone Klassics should be detailed black between the spokes unless you have the really rare gold ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ModelcarJR Posted January 12, 2022 Author Share Posted January 12, 2022 Thanks, All! I appreciate the comments! Yes, the Tamiya Coral Blue is a beautiful color. The wheels are described in the 68 Dodge Charger kit as "Drag wheels". Not sure what they are as I am not good at identifying wheels, but they are chrome with 5 spokes which are my criteria for good looking wheels. Thanks for looking!
