    1953 Corvette

    Thank you Dave. I had to shorten the rear springs to bring the rear wheels forward. And the tires with the kit didn't fit either. They were skinnier. So the hubcaps and wheel backs stuck out. So I got some wider ones. As I said. It was a started kit so those might not have been the correct tires. As for the color. I wanted something that fit the era other than white or black. :-)

    1953 Corvette

    Thank you Matthew.
  21. I just finished this 1953 Corvette. It was partially build. Got it apart. Painted and rebuilt it. This kit wasn't the best. I don't know if it was because it was started and then I took it apart. Or just not formed right. If I assembled it without altering the suspension. The wheels would have made it sit unusually high in the front. and the back wheel pushed way back. I shortened the rear leaf springs so I could adjust that. Then the front spindles had to be drilled lower and a piece of metal axel inserted to reattach the front wheels. My drilling skills are a bit off as your can tell by the one front tire. But heck. It's done. I'm happy with it. I had a few other pictures but for some reason they wouldn't load to the website. Don't know why as I took them all at the same time.
  22. Welcome and model on.
  23. I agree. I'd file a complaint and if it is on a selling site. I'd notify the people running that site. Be it Ebay, Etsy or whoever. I had a similar thing happen with Ebay. I fought it with both Ebay and PayPal and won. But the people I bought it from lied through their teeth giving me a bad rating. And the odd thing it was a seller I've bought things from over the past.. Good luck.
