Modlbldr Posted August 15, 2019 Posted August 15, 2019 I finally sat down today during my break and got this one finished before continuing on to my next project. Not the best of builds but it's finished and, for the most part, looks as I envisioned it. Pegasus Phat Daddy tires and wheels I swiped from a stalled 66 Nova project, resin Magnuson supercharger from Curt Raitz (thanks) mounted on a 2010 Camaro SS engine. I completely modified the chassis and suspension and installed the seats, center console and steering wheel and column from a Viper GTS scrap heap I had on hand. Used an old computer speaker mesh for a grille. The paint looked decent until I noticed that the clear had alligatored on me. My own fault. I had sprayed the first clear coat with a cheap clear and then sprayed a couple of coats of Testors Wet Look Clear over that a few days later. I ended up with a reaction with the cheap stuff. It doesn't show when looking straight on but is definitely noticable at angles. Anywhoo, it's on the shelf now. Hope you enjoy it. Later-
stitchdup Posted August 16, 2019 Posted August 16, 2019 Sweet, lote of cool touches on this but the gun metal bumpers are my fav feature
Modlbldr Posted August 16, 2019 Author Posted August 16, 2019 Thanks Stitchd. The color is Testors Graphite Dust. The lighter color is Testors Diamond Dust. Later-
Koellefornia Kid Posted August 17, 2019 Posted August 17, 2019 Wheels, stance and colors work great together! Really like your exhaust idea!
Modlbldr Posted August 17, 2019 Author Posted August 17, 2019 (edited) Thanks guys! Glad you like it. I think this is my fifth finished project for the year. My best record ever. I still have time to finish one or two. On to a 55 Ford Panel van and a 57 Ford Wagon along with some stalled projects. Later- Edited August 17, 2019 by Modlbldr
