Lovefordgalaxie Posted March 16, 2017 Posted March 16, 2017 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!!!

espo Posted March 16, 2017 Posted March 16, 2017 Beautiful redo. I remember when you first built this. The paint is perfect.
gtx6970 Posted March 16, 2017 Posted March 16, 2017 Even with the faults this kit has ( and there are several ) You sure make it look killer ( no pun intended ) I think I'm going to have to find one of these and build one for myself
MAGIC MUFFLER Posted March 16, 2017 Posted March 16, 2017 It's beautiful..!!! Nice job on this kit. My friend built all the cars for the movie and he said he went through 17 cars total.
bbowser Posted March 16, 2017 Posted March 16, 2017 Another quality job from Tulio's Body Shop! Great save.
Hmann68 Posted March 16, 2017 Posted March 16, 2017 Looks great! Love that movie, always meant to pick up this kit and yours makes me want even more!
Lovefordgalaxie Posted March 17, 2017 Author Posted March 17, 2017 Thanks guys!! Another happy customer serviced Maybe now he gives up asking for another '48 Ford Custom...
Lovefordgalaxie Posted March 22, 2017 Author Posted March 22, 2017 I thought this car was self healing.I wish...
Terminator-Fox Posted March 23, 2017 Posted March 23, 2017 That's the best looking Christine I've seen built. Love it!
