Reverse Chrome --Idea for new build

[just-bill]

Going to start a custom Revell Pete 359.

Thinking of chroming the body and frame and either matte black or matte charcoal on most of the chrome. Stacks, tanks,air cleaners, parts of the grille and wheels, etc.

Edgecomb Steel ran a fleet of custom Stainless bodied Autocars in the 50s. The drivers were required to keep them polished. Ive heard that they were an impressive sight.

That Autocar is pretty cool.

Very interesting. Stainless won't rust that is for sure, and if you keep it polished it looks great. Don't know that I would want to try to duplicate it on a model though.

I will be following this thread for sure.

Be Well
