1948 Chevy

[Cpt Tuttle]

First of all, excuse me for crappy mobile pics, didn't charge the battery in the real camera. But I found this kit cheap, which is good, at least in Sweden they are a bit rare and costly.

Low on spoke wheels = never wrong on a Chevy this age?

Really bad picture but.....painted the engine block copper metallic

And the frame

Made lowering spindles, maybe not the most accurate way to slam it, though the easiest.

I'll be following this. I found this one in Sedona Arizona just off a well known trail.

Classic wheel choice

[Cpt Tuttle]

Thanks. They are from the Moebius 54 Hudson. Fits well in the tyres from the Chevy and looks very crisp and clean.

Painted the body in this shade of copper, I like how it turned out.

[Cpt Tuttle]

Tan interior with some oxblood touches, will go great together with the copper colored body.

Tested the Molotow chrome pens around the window trim and I am quite satisfied. Not quite as gloss as BMF, a little bit better than Testors Chrome silver. I doubt it will be as good as BMF on larger surfaces but it surely was easier to apply.

Did those wheels come with the kit, or was that a parts box item?

[Cpt Tuttle]

They are from the Moebius 1954 Hudson. Tyres are from the Chevy since they are a bit lower.

[Cpt Tuttle]

Found some parts box fuzzy dice so the mirror got some decorations.

I did halfmoons on the headlights with the chrome pen. I didn't have high expectations but since they build up a quite thick layer they look fairly good actually.
