Rbray47 Posted October 6, 2022 Share Posted October 6, 2022 Just finished today. I shaved the body and filled in the fuel cap area, lowered it, and added a Buick GN V6. Paint is Rustoleum Sun Yellow over Mr Hobby primer. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

espo Posted October 6, 2022 Share Posted October 6, 2022 I also like the Buick Grand National engine and it looks like some of the front suspension as well. Great looking paint and it sure is bright. Like the smooth look of the body. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TransAmMike Posted October 6, 2022 Share Posted October 6, 2022 Well Randy, that is a super nice looking '53. Kinda funny, my wife has a cousin named Randy Bray, lives in Pensacola. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XYHARRY Posted October 7, 2022 Share Posted October 7, 2022 Nice 53 Randy. That color looks great and the black interior gives it a tuff look. Love your engine choice, you definitely think outside the square. Cheers, David. 😎👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rbray47 Posted October 8, 2022 Author Share Posted October 8, 2022 Thanks for the compliments guys! I have been slowly building kits from my childhood that I messed up. This one is a replica of a build from the 90s, and I tried to replicate the look I was going for back then. The GN engine is from another one from around the same time that was broken at some point. You can see the Testors Chezoom Teal paint on the block that matched the car lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
