  1. I hear ya man. Glad I stuck with this one.
  2. Thanks man. Yeah, I think it turned out pretty nice.
  3. I'm calling this one done fellows. Under Glass: http://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/topic/184340-1955-chevy-nomad/
  4. Finally got this one finished this morning. Paint is Testors Gloss Sunburst cleared with Tamiya X-22 Clear then wet sanded and polished. All chrome trim is bmf. Wheels & tires are from Jay's Wheels & Tires 1948 on ebay and airbrushed with the chrome out of a Molotow Chrome pen. Interior color is Rust-Oleum 2X Satin Warm Caramel. Suspension was lowered and the bumpers were moved in closer to the body. The tailgate and rear glass are both operational. I did burn through on the top of the rear DS fin while wet sanding and polishing. I have more paint on the way for touch up. WIP: http://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/topic/183088-1955-chevy-nomad/

  13. Thanks Buddy. I can see the light at the end of the tunnel.
  14. I'm slowly getting thing buttoned up on the 55. I got the hood/grille fitment issue resolved, dash completed, I decided to add some color to the front parking lights for a little contrast, and got the radiator hose and clamp installed.
  15. I appreciate ya Brotha. A friend of mine tried the Green World Chrome and said it was no better than the other brands. I really don't mind the dry time on the Molotow Chrome.
  16. Thanks man. Yeah, the dry time does take a while and I still hate to touch it after that.
  17. I hear ya man. Been there, done that, and still doing it.
