Pat Minarick Posted October 24, 2014 Posted October 24, 2014 Started on this a little after it was re-released. I just could help building another Ratmad.
GMCMAN52 Posted October 24, 2014 Posted October 24, 2014 Great looking 57....what's the steps in getting the frame looking like you did
cartpix Posted October 25, 2014 Posted October 25, 2014 Fantastic!!! That will make a great companion, for your '56. The weathering, especially the frame, is outstanding. Jeff
Pat Minarick Posted October 27, 2014 Author Posted October 27, 2014 Nice job. Any more details. Thanks Bob, I didn't take any other pictures of it when I started building it.It's a deals wheels Go-Mad , narrowed up with a reverse chop top .I used the the chassis pan from the Nomad and the front part of the frame and suspension from the Paddy Wagon , the motor is out of the Groovy Grader and the rear tires are out of the Creepy Crawler , all the rest came out of my parts box.Every thing was brush painted and weathered with some pastels.
Pat Minarick Posted October 27, 2014 Author Posted October 27, 2014 That is really awesome!! Nice job!Thanks Ron.
Pat Minarick Posted October 27, 2014 Author Posted October 27, 2014 Great looking 57....what's the steps in getting the frame looking like you did Thanks John , you start with a flat black base then go over it with acrylic's , black and brick red and a old beat up brush .Add some rusty colors of pastels and seal it with dull cote , then dry brush with a dirty white color.Cool ! Thanks Ray.
