Monogram '55 Chevy Bel Air

[TimJ]

Joining my '57 Nomad on the bench is a '55 Bel Air hardtop that I'm building as part of a CBP on one of the Facebook groups that I'm a member of. So far the body has been nosed and decked followed by a couple of coats of primer.

Looks good!  I like the wheels.

Real nice start. The wheels look good..

Thanks for the comments guys.

Over the past couple of days I've got the body and underside painted. Paint is Tamiya Metallic Green and Humbrol Gun Metal. Ive also added redlines to the tires for a bit of extra color.

I dig it. Gonna stay flat or going to gloss it up?

[TimJ]

I've glossed it up Rob. A few coats of Tamiya Pearl clear gave it a nice shine. I dry fitted the side trim to see what it looked like.

Looking forward to applying the foil.

Looks good Tim, love that green with the red lines.

Those wheels, those redlines, that crazy two tone; looks like a vintage Hotwheels. Can't wait to see this finished.

It's been a while since the last update but I have made some more progress. The interior is finished, side trim fitted and the BMF is under way.

As there isn't much left to do now I should have it finished before the end of the year.

Looking good! Gotta love those tri fives.
