StevenGuthmiller Posted April 18, 2015 Author Posted April 18, 2015 I saw this 59 Bonneville convert in a local car show a few years ago. It's huge! It's also beautiful!! Steve
StevenGuthmiller Posted May 12, 2015 Author Posted May 12, 2015 Thanks guys! I really thought this thread was dead & buried! Steve
geetee66 Posted May 12, 2015 Posted May 12, 2015 Beautiful work, Steve Where on earth do you get these kits from? I don't know whether to say it's pretty, or handsome. Either way, top notch, bang-on and jolly spiffing!
Luis Ayala Posted May 13, 2015 Posted May 13, 2015 Hi Steve, Your skills are amazing, outstanding job!!!
StevenGuthmiller Posted May 13, 2015 Author Posted May 13, 2015 Beautiful work, Steve Where on earth do you get these kits from? I don't know whether to say it's pretty, or handsome. Either way, top notch, bang-on and jolly spiffing! 99% of the kits I've been posting since I became a member here have been old annual kits that I've picked up on ebay or other sources. Some have been "glue bombs", some just fairly well preserved built kits, along with a few almost pristine kits. This was no exception. It started out as a very nice, complete built-up that I found on ebay. I just tried to "doll" it up a little & still keep it true to it's box stock, curbside roots. I never cut up a vintage kit unless it's already a basket case when I get it, which is rare because I don't buy basket cases. Steve
StevenGuthmiller Posted May 14, 2015 Author Posted May 14, 2015 Very Very Nicely done Steve. Thanks Jim! Steve

StevenGuthmiller Posted May 15, 2015 Author Posted May 15, 2015 Thanks so much Guys!! I've been in a bit of a modeling "funk" for the past month or so, but I'm slowly getting back to it. With any luck I'll have a '59 Plymouth to post within the next couple of weeks......fingers crossed! Steve

It's always rewarding to know that you have helped inspire someone. Before you leap, you may want to contact me. I may have what you're looking for, for a fraction of the price! Steve
Sidney Schwartz Posted May 16, 2015 Posted May 16, 2015 Gorgeous! I'd sure appreciate it if you could explain in more detail how you do the BMF on the script. It's awesome.
