Repairing Christine.

Back in 2014 I built a AMT '58 Plymouth for my Nº 1 client, my cousin Marcelo.

Well, looks like Stephen King was exaggerating a bit on the Plymouth's regenerative properties <_<

Story is: He was cleaning the shelf and the hood ended on the floor were the paint got chipped.

I think he was doing what I do, playing with her, doing engine sounds, and smashing some Camaros, and the hood got chipped.

Anyways, where do you guys think the good old Plymouth came back to?

Who said my bench, is wright.

The hood had a pretty nice chip missing on the blood red paint.

Had some more paint mixed, stripped the entire hood, and did a basic repaint.

Also, replaced the old tires with a set of Firestone Deluxe Champios I cast myself. The tires she had were some generic no name parts I found on my parts box and painted wide whites to. The originals from AMT, with that tiny white wall insert are really not of my liking. 

Well, here is she, the evil lady ready to kill again!!!

Damage to the hood:
