Forgot the red stripes on the front

Probably should have done that

Yep the Cutlass decals. Only thing is the “Shocks Regal Ride” on the hood is red on this car. So I ordered a set from Mikes Decals that has the correct hood decal included. It will also do the 81 Lemans, so I bought it cause I want to do that car too. I cut the contingency decals apart and arranged them properly. Had to add a couple too from spares.

I still like your grille area better!!!

Decals on chassis painted bumper work beginning.Side by side with Cutlass model.

Blocked and painted!!

More putty and primer

Final plastic additions and putty work.

Next I added wheel flares. And reshaped the frt and back. By removing and adding plastic to get the shape I wanted

This started as a Salvinos Cutlass and the roof from one of their Monte Carlo kits. Will use a AMT chassis. The body side of the Cutlass aren’t quite right so I added some strip to them. Between the strips was filled and block sanded.

All finished

Got the chassis done on this. Basically just final details now.

Some of the K&K 71 up cars were rebodied earlier chassis. Using reference photos available for them would be pretty safe.

Nice job man. How long did it take you to get a nice stance out of that kit chassis?

That is a cool place to get lost for a month or 7.

That car is cool man.

Oh yeah I guess that would help. Maynard took this to Daytona in 73. Resin body on an AMT TBird chassis PPP wheels custom decals. That hood decal wasn’t easy. Polished aluminum exhaust and a 427 tunnel port out of a Polar Lights Talledega.

I use a lid from one of those cheap aluminum roasting pans. A common paper hole punch makes nice headlight size circles.

On wheels waiting for rims to dry

That is sharp Bruce

Feel you there man. I have put the Bird up before.

You’ll like this one too then. Gurney and Donohue were the best ever.

Decals are on. Ready for more clear.
