1320wayne Posted July 2, 2017 Posted July 2, 2017 Finished my 60 Chevy Sedan Delivery. I used a Revell 60 Impala lowrider kit and substituted a Jimmy Flintstone resin body. The graphics were all sized and printed off my pc. I didn't go overboard with any added detail. Just a simple shelf model style build that was fun to do. The exhaust exits in front of the rear wheelwells and the air cleaner is from my parts stash.
crazyjim Posted July 2, 2017 Posted July 2, 2017 Looking good, Wayne. It's SHINY and I like the USMC tag on back.
vintagercr Posted July 2, 2017 Posted July 2, 2017 Wayne that looks great. How about a tutorial on how you did the graphics.
DumpyDan Posted July 3, 2017 Posted July 3, 2017 Looks great, nice you are able to fit looks like it fit like a glove.....But I think I know better
espo Posted July 3, 2017 Posted July 3, 2017 I really like the Flames. I usually can't say that, but these look different. Air Cleaner from a Mercedes maybe ?? Very cool build.

Using the resin body brought all kinds of fit issues. Plus I wanted the stance to be as low as possible. I had to shave a lot off the backside of the dash, the bottom side of the windshield, the radiator support along with other small areas to make everything fit and it's still not perfect.

I have the same body and after I tried the same thing I put it back on the shelf......One day I will pull it out again.

I first started on this years ago and put it away back then. Sometimes that's what it takes.
