I want to replicate the Blair's speed shop 1955 2-door sedan gasser and I have 2 challenges I would like to get advice on. I want to leave off the front bumper. The nose and splash apron on the 1955 AMT sedan kit aren't even close to looking right. It looks like a block of plastic. On the other hand the nose on the Monogram kit looks fabulous. Has anyone grafted the nose from the Monogram kit to the Amt kit. The scales of are different. Amt at 1/25 Monogram at 1/24. I would love any input on how to correct this issue.
Second challenge I would like to radius the rear wheel well as they did in the 60's which is not a problem but how can I get the rolled edge back? Evergreen strip and putty?
Would love your input.
Thanks in advance.
