1958 Plymouth Belvedere

[Mike C]

Well, here is another build of mine. It came out pretty nice but I hear the engine is terribly inaccurate but it looks nice anyway. I used some PE and BMF too.

First here's some interior and engine WIP shots:

Very nice Belvedere . Its also nice to see you didn't describe it a model of Christine

[Renegade]

Very clean build. Sharp looking interior.

Thanks. I never describe it as Christine, but others have.

Great looking Plymouth Michael.  I love the interior.  Nice job.

[cobraman]

Very sharp !

Nicely done. I always enjoy seeing this kit when its complete. One of my favorite 50's style cars. Good job.

Excellent detail work!

You nailed the color/visual texture of the exhaust manifolds perfectly

[Lovefordgalaxie]

Sorry guys, but this car looks best in red and white. I guess It's all Stephen King's fault. 

The one I built IS a Christine model. Not being a fan of mopars, that was the only way for me to build one.

Nice work!

[CometMan]

Very nice work! Other than a proper Fury, which is a dark beige with gold trim, the red and white combo does look best on those Plymouths!

Very nice overall, and that interior is just beautiful. But the front bumper seems to be sagging somehow... the part that wraps around and runs along the front fender looks to be angled downward instead of going straight.

Very nice work.  I think this kit gets a bad rap.  I've read all about the wonky side trim and incorrect roofline, but it builds into a very nice model, as evidenced here.

Very nice Michael!

I especially like the interior.

Where did the seat insert decals come from?

Interesting.

They must have some new ones I've not seen.

I bought several patterns a couple of years ago & I don't remember seeing this one.

The fit the Plymouth perfectly.

That bumper can be problematic. If you don't hold it there for awhile to let the glue set, it'll tip forward and sag like that.

Still love the car and the build. Great stuff!!!

[slusher]

Very nice Plymouth.
