ATHU Posted August 18, 2019 Posted August 18, 2019 (edited) Nothing much to say about this one. Factory stock '57 Chev. Always wanted to do one in this color combo which is Adobe beige/Sierra Gold and here it is?. AMT kit. Edited August 18, 2019 by ATHU
Dragonhawk1066 Posted August 18, 2019 Posted August 18, 2019 Great work! Looks very good in that color combo!
peekay Posted August 18, 2019 Posted August 18, 2019 Often built but not often this nicely. Excellent job.
espo Posted August 18, 2019 Posted August 18, 2019 Beautiful looking Bel Air. In '56 and '57 this color combination was very popular for Chevrolet and was always my favorite. You really captured the correct color for the fabric seat inserts.
styromaniac Posted August 19, 2019 Posted August 19, 2019 Nicely done. I have too ask....is this the classic been around forever AMT kit ? Or the famous re-tool? Would be interested to hear from all which '57 Bel Air kit the lovers of this car consider the best....regardless of mfg or scale.
RAMBENNA Posted August 19, 2019 Posted August 19, 2019 wow this is fantastic, great colors and detail.
Kiwi_Bloke Posted August 19, 2019 Posted August 19, 2019 Very beautiful, I have one to build too, what paints did you use?
BeakDoc Posted August 19, 2019 Posted August 19, 2019 Beautifully done, Anders. Fantastic paint job and color combo.
ATHU Posted August 20, 2019 Author Posted August 20, 2019 Thank you for the kind comments guys, very much appreciated!!

I still like the old kit but the re-tool has more accurate body proportions and better detail. The Revell 2d sedan is also a very nice kit.

Dave Darby Posted August 21, 2019 Posted August 21, 2019 I've always thought the new tool AMT 57 was under-rated. The only shortcoming is I think they put too small of tires on it. Yours is a gorgeous build and the color combo is just what i would pick. Nice job!
harti20 Posted August 21, 2019 Posted August 21, 2019 Very nice build and a beautiful color scheme. I really love it.

BigTallDad Posted August 22, 2019 Posted August 22, 2019 Absolutely stellar work and results. There's a kit error that could have been addressed...the wheel on the spare tire has lug nuts; there should be holes, not nuts.
