1957 Chevy Bel Air

[Koellefornia Kid]

Hi guys,

today I want to show you one of my Lowrider projects, built in 2013. I wanted to do something different than the usual Impalas from the ´60s (though I like them very much!), so I used AMT´s 1957 Bel Air Sport Coupe.

The build features: wired engine, flocked interior, scratch built chain steering wheel, photo- etched club plaque, scratchbuilt fuzzy dices, lowered suspension, Pegasus wire wheels, cut out deck lid with scratch built hinges, scratch built trunk, Pegasus hydraulic pumps and batteries. Painted in Jade Green and Chrystal Silver.

 

Called this one „The Jade Buddha“.

Thanks for looking, comments welcome.

Greetings from Germany

Ausgezeichnet!  I'm really intrigued by that Jade Green paint.  Would you mind telling me who makes it?

That's a stunning color combo and a really nice paint job. Looks great.

Thanks a lot.

Paint is Testors Jade Green enamel paint, sprayed over VW Chrystal Silver (rattle can).
