Harold Posted April 21, 2008 Posted April 21, 2008 Well, I got this one finished over the weekend, and it was a darn sight easier than the Plymouth. My only gripe (or issue, depending) was the fact that it took a while to get those %^$#&*@ vent windows in place. The particulars on this car are Tamiya gold leaf for the engine, Polly S Reefer White and Steam Power black for the interior and Dupli-Color Ford Candy Apple Red for the fenderwells. I love doing web research to help with my projects, and for anyone else doing a 442, go to www.oldsmobility.com. Oh yeah- I pulled the Cragars from AMT's '50 Ford, and the tires are AMT big and little Eagles. The exhaust tips are aluminum tubing, the carpet is Detail Master flocking and the plug wires are my home mades. Sorry 'bout the picture quality on the engine pic. Well, my History final's in an hour, so I gotta run. See y'all.

RodneyBad Posted April 22, 2008 Posted April 22, 2008 A very well done job. Paint and BMF looks excellent. Nice classic choice of wheels Exhaust tips are a nice touch.
