  4. No wonder I don't know any of these. Madonna?.....Really? Steve
  5. I originally was thinking off white with a pale gold accent color, but I posed the question to the forum & the gray/coral combo was the resounding winner.....so I went with that. I'm just pretending that the original owner owned a coral & gray '55 Chevy & really liked the color combo, so he had this one spruced up by the dealer. Steve
  6. Looks like whoever built the '60 wasn't a hack! nice looking stuff. Do you have all of the parts for the '59? Steve
  7. It should be more prominent once clear coated & polished. Some sun light should help also. Believe me, there's a TON of metal flake in this paint. The nice thing about MCW metallics is the scale of the metal flakes. Not always real evident at first glance, which is the way they should be. Steve
  8. Beautiful!! Steve
  9. There's a pretty nice one on ebay right now, (item # 381196151286) @ $22.00 right now. Steve
  10. Have fun removing the mold lines on this one Rich! The mold lines run right across the double fins! A real joy to get into all the nooks & crannies! Steve
  11. It doesn't look too bad for one of these old promos Bill, but I'm definitely seeing some warpage issues in a few areas other than the "concave" door. The top of the front fender on the drivers side is showing a dip in the center which tells me that the whole front end is warping "upward" which you see a lot on these. Also there looks to be some issues with the rear bumper & the surrounding body area. That could be an issue to try to get looking right. If it were me, I'd skip it & look for a styrene '60 Ford. I've seen a lot of them on ebay. Must have been one of the more popular kits in '60. Just my opinion, but then again, I never buy promos. Steve
  12. Procol Harum is what I was looking for. Get the other 3, win a prize! Steve
  13. I would have been honored to take my drivers test in one of these. I took mine in a '78 LeBaron station wagon! Steve

  19. A real "stickler" aren't ya! Steve
  20. I'm betting that the '59 Bonneville never came in this color combo, but I like it! The gray paint can look a little like primer if the light doesn't hit it right. I had a little trouble spraying this gray. Couldn't seem to get it to spray wet enough, so it's a little rough in texture, but it'll be fine after clear & polish. I'm wondering if the paint sprayed so dry because of the high volume of metal flake in it. Lots of "metallic" in this one! Steve
  21. I beat him by 2 minutes!! My point! Steve
  22. Perfectly Good Guitar.....John Hiat.
  23. Nice work Bill! I really wish Mobius would take the next step on the '55-'56 300 kits & give us a New Yorker, maybe a convertible. Or better yet a '56 Desoto would be fantastic! Steve
  24. Aha Harry! You are still awake! & as sharp as ever! Steve
  25. Another car song. Steve "Here in my car, I feel safest of all."
