Nice looking Belvedere, Dan.  I like your road, too.

Very nice!

I'll echo Jim B's comments - Looks like a great, clean build and your road and guard rail look pretty darn good too!!

Very nice work!  Reminds me of a story of course!  Back in the mid 1980s a local new car dealer advertised a 1968 Belvedere 2 door with 60,000 miles at an attractive price.  I ran to take a look and was immediately disappointed!  Not that it was a completely bare bones car...   slant 6, no power steering or brakes and manual everything else!  But that it was completely rusted to pieces!  I would have bought the car other than that.  And of course it was that Mopar puke green!

In that same era I did buy a 1967 Valiant bare bones two door sedan with 40,000 miles. I drove it as my commuter car for 3 years, bringing it up over 100,000 miles. Then one of the torsion bar boxes rotted through so I parted the car out.

Nicely done. It remind me of cars from the movie Gone in 60 seconds (1974)

Here's the slant 6 finished.

Thanks for all the comments. This build is part of a big dealership diorama project that I've been planning.

That is sweet!  I love these grocery-getter conversions.  Nicely done.

I like your Plymouth Dan and I applaud your decision to make a model of a car that could get lost in a crowd of two! - At least when it was new. Now, of course it would stand out in any parking lot. Your background is exceptional as well.

Nicely done. It remind me of cars from the movie Gone in 60 seconds (1974)
