Kombi Posted April 15, 2008 Posted April 15, 2008 I figured for a first post I'd show off something I just finished. So, here's a '55 Nomad that just joined the rest in the "case." I'm actually rather pleased with this one, albeit it still shows my need for more practice and patience. My only real contributions to this kit was the application of the wheels, which required a bit of a re-think on the front end and tubbing in the rear; a little tinting of the glass, I pirated an LT1 with some form of supercharger out of a Camaro kit I had laying around, and then a few of the Kustom parts that came along with the kit including the Lucas style headlamps. Thanks for looking.
RodneyBad Posted April 15, 2008 Posted April 15, 2008 Gorgeous 55 Nice all around job.. Paint and BMF looks super and the wheels are a good match.
mikelo Posted April 15, 2008 Posted April 15, 2008 That turned out really nice! I love the color. Looks like you nailed the stance. Has the overall "look" to it. Thanks for posting & I look forward to seeing more of your work.
Nick F40 Posted April 15, 2008 Posted April 15, 2008 My favorite color, year, beautiful wheels/stance, and I love those Lucas lights!
Kombi Posted April 16, 2008 Author Posted April 16, 2008 Well thank you all for the kind words. I actually really like this one more than most I've completed recently. It just seemed to "work" and though there are definitely some areas I'd do differently overall I'm quite pleased. We'll see if I can get anything else done before yardwork season begins again.
bsoder Posted April 17, 2008 Posted April 17, 2008 I love '50s Chevy's and that is a beauty!! subtle but potent just finished a '55 Bel Air I'll be posting shortly,check it out if you get a chance, I'd appreciate your comments
