kratvmnd Posted April 30, 2015 Posted April 30, 2015 Haven't been on in awhile, so here's one to start with. This is a practice run before I build my Modelhaus 4-door version of how I want my 1:1 car to look like. Paint is a custom mix. Other than that it's basically a curbside, interior is all black, no engine detail. Thanks for looking. More to come soon.
Guest Posted April 30, 2015 Posted April 30, 2015 Usually not a fan of big wheels, thin tires, but that looks great! I love the color.
hjracing Posted April 30, 2015 Posted April 30, 2015 Beautyful paint job! I really like your take on this one!
gluebomb Posted April 30, 2015 Posted April 30, 2015 That's definitely an astounding "practice" run, if I say so myself!
robertw Posted April 30, 2015 Posted April 30, 2015 Clean build, beautiful finish and a very appropriate colour.
Mutato Posted April 30, 2015 Posted April 30, 2015 Looks great. My father had that exact car (sans the wheels!) back in the late 60's early 70's. I remember it having a white interior with plastic covering the seats! He wrecked it on the highway and then had it repainted a real bright yellow. He said so the big rigs could see him in the fog (long commute on Rte 95 between CT and RI). Looked horrible.
Sixties Sam Posted April 30, 2015 Posted April 30, 2015 Very nice Corvair! Great finish and foil work! Sam
DumpyDan Posted May 1, 2015 Posted May 1, 2015 If this is practise can't wait to see what you end up with............Very nice
charlie8575 Posted May 2, 2015 Posted May 2, 2015 I can't get into the wheels, but with the rake, they don't look too bad. That color is gorgeous. Charlie Larkin
kratvmnd Posted May 2, 2015 Author Posted May 2, 2015 Thanks everyone. This ones not complete(missing mirrors,some trim,wrong wheels,etc.) but it's finished..next one will have a more '60's style wheel combo and be a little lighter shade of green, and be a 4-door.
Guest Posted May 3, 2015 Posted May 3, 2015 That is a really cool looking little Corvair Albert! I love the color on it! Would you mind telling how you mixed it?
