Chevy II

Thanks everyone. I watched a couple YouTube videos of real coupes being chopped. They were all fords, but similar body form. And the one article shows it’s possible. I found a drawing of a 37 Chevy fenderness lowboy that I’m going to try & build.

I am looking for any information about chopping the top on an AMT 37 Chevy coupe model. I have done a couple, 32 Ford coupe & 34 Ford pickup. They were pretty straightforward, but this one looks more challenging. Want to keep the quarter windows & not fill them in. Any help with pictures would be appreciated.

I don’t recognize what kit is, but I like what you have going.

Pro streeting AMT ‘60 Corvette. Plan to paint bright yellow & add supercharged SBC.

I see people are recommending to clean resin parts with Westley’s Bleach White, but the original isn’t available anymore. Has been replaced with Black Magic brand. I have read they are not the same. &nbsp What are you guys using to clean your resin parts? Has anyone tried Simple Green?

Turned the AMT 63 Nova station wagon into a 2 door sedan delivery & pro street it too.

Got mine yesterday.

Still waiting in Seattle area..

Those headers are wild. Did you use solder?

Really like those wheels & the actual car is killer.

Paul, that thing is unreal.

Here’s one that I started while waiting for paint to dry on another build. AMT 61 Falcon Ranchero, pro streeted with some help from AMT’s 66 Nova Pro Street.

Steven your builds are just so detailed and thorough out. Dang, I start out with a plan, but often it changes as the build goes on. I got a lot of ideas from Roger’s builds and he was always willing to share how he accomplished something if you asked. Really a shocker when I found out he was gone.

Thanks for all the kind comments. I was very pleased with how it turned out and excited to hear the Galaxie kits May be reissued. These are a few pictures of the interior before assembly.

Just finished this 47 Chevy coupe from Galaxie Limited. I have a 1:1 1948 Chevy coupe, so this was a must build. This kit can be made as either a 46, 47 or 48. The detail in this kit is second to none. Only issue I had was painting it with those little jars of Testors. Let it set for over a month before doing any BMF, glass or exterior pieces.
