That's a nice model you have there...

Lovely!

James, incredible job with the detailing on this Chevy. From the rust to the worn paint, to the stitching on the seats and all the other subtle touches. The thing I noticed first was how you lapped the window trim so as to look like the 1:1 pieces. You should be proud to display this one, Great Job.

Not an easy kit to make look good, but you did a great job. Nicely detailed!

Nice project you have going Mark, I do enjoy a real stock car build!

Outstanding model, very nice...

Thank you for the comments, everyone. The top is the kit piece, I chopped it about 3 scale inches and then rounded it as much as I could. I painted it and the interior Tamiya Racing White and then covered it in Flat Clear and some blackwash to give it a little life. The body and chassis was painted Tamiya Pearl Green TS60 w/ a 40% clear coat by Model Car World Finishes, it's made for the military modeler but I like how it gives a satin look. Except for a few gentle mods and a kit bash engine, the rest is stock, Thanks again...

Not my cup of tea as a subject, but you've done a beautiful job on the build. Your foil work and details look great and the detail painting add just the right touches. Nice job.

Satin finish with a flaty, and a reshaped roof to represent a Carson top. This one fought me some with a twisted body but I think it turned out ok. I do know one thing I will not wait to glue the fenders on last ever again.

Outstanding rendition, that paint it smooth, and you added just enough detail. Well done...

I like the body it looks great from here. You could paint the hood semi-gloss black and call it a day! It's a nice build...

Yes practice makes perfect! I will cut a piece of styrene the desired shape of the line and then tape it to the area you're working on. Gives you a little more edge to work with than tape that will certainly change lines while scribing. A real scribing tool is helpful and the slower you go the less likely to have a mishap.

It's like styrene surgery...

Nice styrene alterations, I'm pretty sure you can handle the wing!

Pretty serious looking 32! Nice build

Nice, I love saving old builds...

Any updates, I just purchased this kit. Haven't even looked inside yet.

I like where this is going....

I will follow along....

Never assume anything, never expect anything, you'll never be disappointed.

Clarify...

Thanks, this is the kit top, I chopped it 3" scale inches and reshaped it to represent a Carson top.
