dub Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 You did a good job on this piece! I have to agree on the straight 6. Lowriders don't need 400hp. The only thing that I might do to improve it at all would be just a quick shot of dullcote on the bottom. Definitely don't need to do it though. You can't see the bottom when its sitting on the shelf, right? Oh, good pics too. Keep that up. It helps us see your work better to appreciate what you put into it.

evilone Posted April 10, 2008 Author Share Posted April 10, 2008 (edited) i was actually thinking on adding inner fenders and more engine details and white walls (thin of course)as well as interior details but i dont know yet if i will thanks for your idea though Edited April 10, 2008 by evilone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raul_Perez Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 Kevin, First I want to thank and applaud you for the 100x improvement in the clarity of your pictures and your text. Second, I really like the "back-to-stock" mods you made on the Chevy! Third, I really like the color choices and the very suttle difference in color between the body and the fenders! Good job, young man, good job!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 That's so subtle, I hardly even looked at it to begin with. Then I gradually realised how clean and well-detailed it is - a lovely build and the colour choice is Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j_nigrelli Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 nice; any chance of sticking a 'swamp cooler' in that passenger window? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dag Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 (edited) Nice one the Pachukas would be proud. I sure do like the bombs. I agree on the swamp cooler. THere are alot of cool accessories one could put on a model like that. A stop light viewer on the dash would be cool too.

Harold Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 Nice looking Chevy. I like the stance and color combo. Like the 6, also. Good work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FordRodnKustom Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 Nice job on the engine swap and detail. Your color choice works well too. I like the idea of thin ww's. That would make the overall package really pop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Gramps-xrds Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 Kevin that's a good lookin model you got. One even I would be proud to display. Keep up the good work. I agree it needs white walls, but then I put whites on everything lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carrucha Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 Nice lowrider bomb. I like the color combo. I also used the AMT 1960 Chevy pickup inline six when I built my '39 Chevy lowrider bomb 4-door sedan. Lowrider Chevy bombs only look good with inline six engines. Too bad the kit doesn't include a stock hood. If you want a stock hood, you need to take the one out of the sedan delivery kit. If you need more ideas on detailing your lowrider bomb, check out the following websites: http://royalcruisers.com http://www.baybombs.com/ http://www.viejitoscarclub.com http://www.oldiescc.com/ http://www.chevybombs.com/ http://www.oldmemoriessgv.net/ http://www.oldmemoriescc.com/ http://www.oldmemoriescarclub.com carrucha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
