kratvmnd Posted April 30, 2015 Share 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 30, 2015 Share Posted April 30, 2015 Usually not a fan of big wheels, thin tires, but that looks great! I love the color. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mutato Posted April 30, 2015 Share 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

charlie8575 Posted May 2, 2015 Share 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kratvmnd Posted May 2, 2015 Author Share 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.
