VERY cool.

Takes talent to make happy accidents; most folks just make the regular kind.

Nice '65 model. Don't they look great red?!

LOVE the big early 60s GM cars; sedans, hardtops, wagons, ALL! This is a particularly nice looking wagon, owing as much to the tasteful blue color as Chevy's oh-so-cool body styling. Digging everything about this one. SO well done.

With a metalflake paint job, that would be right at home on the cover of one of the old custom car mags of the 50s and 60s; the "little pages"!

Interesting parts in these kits, but I don't see paying what kits are bringing these days for this particular one.

Oh heck yeah, this is FUN!

Phenomenal work. Very interesting process, very cool car!

Body work is looking GOOD.

Nothing wrong with 2k if you have the necessary safety equipment. I'd use 2k from the primer/sealer coat all the way through the process. Test spray the back side of a piece to insure compatibility. IF it's resin, you should have no problems. Is it even painted now, or just molded in color? Your close up pictures make it look translucent and not very black at all, almost like MAYBE just a shiny clearcoat over black-ish resin. Do keep us posted, I'm curious to see how it goes!

It could make a decent dash mounted tach, if we are looking at the back side and flat mounting base! Is there any detail on the front (other) side?

https://ecsvr.com/cpr/shopexd.asp?id=409 He calls them 1/25, but they appear to be exact copies of the old 1/24 Monogram bits. Likely close enough either way.

I love this car. Very unexpected for the style, and it makes it a real standout. Love the simplicity and the impact it creates. I would probably gone without the billet accessories under the hood even. Still very cool.

Cool look for a Manx! Nicely done.

So much fun to see your build come together, and very informative! Great looking rod you've created.

Great use of the snapper! This looks familiar; was it featured in one of your how-to books?

Very clean build, and looks the part! Good job.

That really is...Just. So. Cool. That needs to be a proper 1/25 kit for the masses!

I always liked that version of Andy's ride. Very nicely recreated.

Only if you mean '58 or '59! Definitely a '60s thru early 70s vibe. I could see that metal flake goodness on the cover of 1970 Rod & Custom! RRR, that is one gorgeous rod you've pieced together!

Very nice gray/silver indeed! Excellent color mixes on the models shown.

Very cool appearance. This kit may lack details, but does a lot right to make for the perfect drag car look. Your paint treatment is especially appropriate for an imposing drag car! The blackout treatment of the rear is so nice, I would have been tempted to carry it to the front as well. As far as those tiny buckets go, you should have posted in the "Wanted" here, as most of us have a trove of leftover buckets from our collective stashes! Your solution is perfectly fine, though. This is a cool hot rod all around. Well done.

Those wheels are like the classic Cragar S/S; they look good on most anything! I bought a couple of those kits just to get the wheels, although they are pretty nice kits.

That interior is just beautiful! You've done some nice work, but this may be my personal favorite. The color, your clean building, and precise detailing just add up to a fantastic interior. It's a model to display on its own!

Aren't those from the AMT '49 Merc? Cool custom detail.
