Thank you guys. Yes Larman, I almost removed the grille too but I’m glad I didn’t ?

Hi everyone, just finished MPC’s spirit of 57. This is another kit that I had as a kid and lately I’ve been buying some of them again as they come around. I’d say this is mostly OOB, but I did some changes. I cut the front bumper off the grille and added a “moon” tank. Added plug wires. Wheels and tires are out of the parts box, but rear tires are from the kit. The decals are scavenged from spare sheets and I used whatever I thought looked good, even if they are from actual cars. Paint is Testors Pure Gold with BMF. I have to say the fit of most pieces was good but a lot of flash etc to clean up. All in all a really fun build! Thanks for looking!! ?

Sweet! Love the yellow, and your clean work. This is a fun kit. Nicely done ?

Very nice work and details !

Turned out beautiful!! I really like that color ??

One of the coolest cars from then. Nice work ?

Another beautiful build from you!

Definitely the best one I’ve seen!

Wow, the paint and decals look great ?

X2! The white C-stripe really sets it off ?

That’s what a street rod is supposed to look like! Can’t beat black either. Nice and clean ?
