geetee66 Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 Amazing work, John! You got the paint laid down SO well! Your gold lines are super-crisp. As I've just completed a Watson tribute, I'm massively impressed with yours. You totally nailed it and I'm sure Mr Watson would admire it with respect! Yes!

Brett Barrow Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 Yeah, this thing deserves to be bumped up to the main page every now and then! Hey John, what do you mean, " with apologies To Billy Gibbons? I'm guessing "Pennsylvania Bluebird" is a takeoff on Billy Gibbons' "Mexican Blackbird" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisBcritter Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 The wheel covers are also Modelhaus repros of '59 Dodge caps, which were a custom option in an early '60s AMT kit (anybody remember which one?) 1962 Imperial (photo from current eBay listing #181440692860): Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramfins59 Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 That is one beautiful T-Bird John, and I love those '59 Dodge hubcaps. They are the "ultimate" spinner hubcap. Watson also put them on his '59 Caddy and his '57 Olds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skip Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 As much as I liked the Blackbird, I have to say that I like your color combination better, it fits the car and is in keeping with Larry Watson's colors on many of the cars he painted. Not all of his panel paint jobs were done with candies and pearls. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Goschke Posted June 25, 2014 Author Share Posted June 25, 2014 Wow! A nice surprise seeing this old thread resurface! Thanks for the additional comments, guys! And, Chris, a special thank you for supplying the answer to the question regarding the original source of the '59 Dodge caps! Come to think of it they would look great on a '62 Imperial! 1962 Imperial (photo from current eBay listing #181440692860): Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
