BobbyG Posted January 18, 2016 Posted January 18, 2016 Guys, still working on the 63 Plymouth Belvedere, but decided to get my Johan 62 Plymouth station wagon going too. I used the 60 Plymouth roof with scratch built tail gate , tailights and rear bumper. Using the chassis parts from the Lindberg 64 Dodge, cleaned up the grille, front bumper and headlight buckets still a lot of work to be done. The Dodge Dart is further along with the door panels done and need to add the sedan posts on the left side. Love to hear your comments, thanks.
dragcarz Posted January 18, 2016 Posted January 18, 2016 Great start, I'm very impressed with the new scribed lines on the rear doors. How did you do those?
EL LOCO Posted January 18, 2016 Posted January 18, 2016 Never seen these types of vehicles. Looking forward to seeing it finished.
BobbyG Posted January 18, 2016 Author Posted January 18, 2016 Great start, I'm very impressed with the new scribed lines on the rear doors. How did you do those?Roger:I use the back of an X-acto knife, a steady hand and patience...a real pain. But if you take your time and don't rush you can do it. I use a lot of reference pictures of the real cars too. All the correct body panel lines are scribed as well.Thanks for your comment.
charlie8575 Posted January 19, 2016 Posted January 19, 2016 Very nice job on that wagon. Any chance we might be able to talk you into getting that cast? Charlie Larkin

Stay tuned on that, there is a good possibility on making this into a resin kit with a well known quality caster. I'm taking my time on the wagon to make it as accurate and clean as possible. When it's ready at that point, I hope to find help on getting artwork done for P/E scripts.
