1958 Plymouth Belvedere

[crazyjim]

I've had this one done  for a few days but had to wait for some sunshine.  It's a 1958 Plymouth Belvedere that has the side chrome trim removed.  All the chrome has been stripped except for the wheels.  Tru-Color metallic black was sprayed and then covered with 2 part urethane clear.

That looks sinister Jim. And the interior is super nice too (again). Another great model!

Thanks Geno.

Wow. What was your process for removing the trim?

[crazyjim]

I put a sanding drum on my Dremel Stylus and ground it down.  Finished of with a series of sanding sticks and Bondo.

Looking good, awesome

[crazyjim]

Thanks Dave, Christopher, Marty, and Dan. 

You may be correct about the scoop, Dave. Unfortunately, I don't mark parts before putting them in parts bins.  I did cut out the appropriate portion of the hood underneath though.

By the description alone, I imagined a '58 Plymouth like that would be ugly as hel. 

Boy was I wrong. It looks bad, yes, but in a good way!! Something death should drive in Supernatural.
