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. Thanks very much Ray!! Yes you're right about the kit error. I actually drilled out the holes in the spare wheel, just difficult to see in the pic.

Many years ago there was a junkyard scene on the cover of Scale Auto or Car Modeler... and right in the foreground was a tire with lugs on it!
StevenGuthmiller Posted August 23, 2019 Posted August 23, 2019 Nice!! There is a house across the street from my place of employment that has had a '57 Belair 4 door hard top sitting in the driveway for the past couple of years, and it's painted in this exact color scheme. Steve
ATHU Posted August 24, 2019 Author Posted August 24, 2019 Thank you for the kind comments guys, much appreciated!!
Shambles Posted August 25, 2019 Posted August 25, 2019 Really nice build. Much better than mine, which crashed a few years ago and went off to Shambles Performance Salvage yard.

Here's a 1:1 in the same color combo which took some damage, a bit sad to see actually....?
Shambles Posted August 25, 2019 Posted August 25, 2019 Always been partial to '57s. Back in the late 90s, I did a 57 Sedan Delivery resto-mod. Never quite finished it but it was a fun, 6 year project that my friends helped me with. My intention (other than having fun) was to letter it up for my business and take a tax write off. Somehow, that never worked out like I'd hoped.
