Unclescott- It is a 56 DeSoto Convertible. Later- -
Thanks Dave. Oh yes. Just search anything you are interested in (auto, military, sealed kits, parts) with auction in the search term. Easy enough. Later-

I won this last night on a FB auction. Been wanting one for years since I saw one in the video below but didn't know who made one. Just found it by chance. $23 plus shipping. I'm happy so far. Can't wait to get it into my hot little hands and see what it looks like. Curious to find out who cast it. 56 DeSoto Convertible http:// http:// http:// Later-

So, my daughter just sent me a text asking me if I wanted this. http:// I said "Definitely". Then I told her to send me a picture of the inside and she said "I would, but it's still sealed." Got it for $14. Later-

Started this recently following the outstanding two-part article from Tim Boyd in the Dec 1999 and Jan 2000 SAE. Painted it in Testors Citrus Yellow Metallic. Here is the progress to this point. http:// http:// http:// http:// http:// http:// http:// So, here we sit so far. I'll be detailing the body next and then it is on to the engine. Later-

Got the bumpers on. http:// http:// http:// Then I realized that the rear bumper sits too far out. So I removed it and will shorten the bumper brackets to pull it closer to the body. Always something. Later-

Thanks guys. Got to get the BMF done soon. The other parts are just a short stint at the bench. Later-

Update- Got the interior in and wheels on. Not real happy with the whitewalls. I put decals on for the WW and they cracked a bit, so I painted over them. I may go back someday and change the tires out when I find the right ones......or I may not. http:// http:// http:// http:// These pics stink but they were just some quick shots I took during a break at work. I'll go back once I'm finished and take some outside photos. All that's left is the bumpers, a mirror and BMF the side trim. Thanks for looking and feel free to comment or criticize. Later-

Amazing work, for sure! Nice to see the in progress pics for reference. I have always had ideas kicking around for customizing one of these. Makes me want to drop everything.... Later-
