You've probably just got the skirts mocked up, but on the final installation the top of the skirt should follow the side trim.

[RDean58]

Yes, the skirts are taped on. Thanks for the tip.

I like what your doing with the '57 Chevys... ??

Please keep them going!! Your off to a great start..?

Love the ambition! I think you need the Revell '57 Convertible in the mix too!

Cool stuff, but the best use of those skirts is the parts bin! (Never cared for 'em, that's just me)

Nice to see the other old custom pieces used, especially like the Buick grille.

Any thoughts as to colors for either car?

Funny you should mention that, here are two I started years ago. Both will be black with red/silver interior for convert and red/black for sedan.

I'm also using the continental kit and skirts on this Revell 2 door sedan.

The mild custom will be a green, I am up in the air on the full custom right now. Not even a clue as to what color it will be.  Perhaps Aztec Gold? (Testors' one coat lacquer).

While I am at it, a couple more on the back burner, started about 6 years ago.

Silver and grey interior, single 4 bbl and auto

 

Silver and gun metal (Tamiya colors) with duel 4 barrel intake from the new tool AMT kit. I started this one before the convertibles were out.

MOOOORE!!!

Got some more done on these, here are some updated Pics!

This one is pretty much completed, except.... I had painted the floor flat red but then I ordered some Ken' fuzzy fur in red so I want to redo the carpet area with the fur.

Got the green paint put on this one, still waiting on the interior.

Paint and decals done on the 150 racer.

BelAir sedan is painted

Convertible has paint on it as well.

That's it for now.

That black on the convertible looks absolutely incredible. Are you going to paint the aluminum inserts on   corder panels? keep it coming!
