tyrone Posted April 9, 2012 (edited) what's up fellas, well I got some paint on the Nova yesterday,, and I had some idle time on my hands. I've had this 57 chevy body from flashpoint, so I started on what's probably going to be a long project.. This one will have a blower, and this will be my first crack at scratch building the chassis... I've started on the floor section... here's a few pics..

MicroNitro Posted April 10, 2012 That is a cool looking body, I need to do a pro mod you guys are having too much fun. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Prostreet Posted April 10, 2012 (edited) Nice start on the frame Tyrone, I notice the 1/25 body differs some from the 1/16. I think the scoop in the hood looks better. Edited April 10, 2012 by Prostreet Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gasser59 Posted April 10, 2012 Oh yea!! Another epic Tyrone build in the making. I'm glued to my seat for this one and it'll even have a blower. I really like the looks of that sleek and swoopy FlashPoints body and especially the hood. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

W-409 Posted April 12, 2012 This will be interesting. That '57 Body looks good to me, and with your talents this is going to be awesome build. The frame looks very good so far. I have to say that I always enjoy watching your projects. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
