Reapers ride

[GOTH KUSTOMS]

Ok I've only just started this thing off, I dont have a box shot so? didnt get it with the box, It was a polor lights kit, ecto 59 ghost buster ambulance. Now I've just choped the top and am doing all the fill in work, cut the hood out, so it will open, dont much like the rims and tires, but its all I have will trade them off If someone is interested, anyway, it will be channeld in front, an thats about it for now, besides the pannels in tha rear are scratched built. Hope you guys like the photo's. Oh yea this project will be chop'ed, channel'd and blown...

Now I dont think these are the greatest pictures but I do hope you can see it. I'm one of those A.D.D kids, so I've got to be doing something diffrent all the time.

[Spike]

lookin killer (pun intended ) i really like the chop top and filled in rear windows, i may have to do that to mine now

[GOTH KUSTOMS]

Ok as you can see I still have lil more to do to the top of Reapers Ride, primer'd it so I could see all the spot's I still need to put putty in, after I do one more coat of primer to make sure I got all the spot's fill'd in, I spray some texter to the top....

[GOTH KUSTOMS]

Well here It is with the texture, A lil rough to say the least, have alot of clean up work to do as soon as the paint dry's but It's comeing along. Gonna try and put some trim on It, from scratch. I know the paint looks glossy, but dry to a satin finish...

The chop top looks very natural on it.

Is that a textured paint for the roof?

[Spike]

x2 whatd you use on the top?

[GOTH KUSTOMS]

x2 whatd you use on the top?

Thanx guys this will be a long build,

It's a two part process part one I used Krylon's fusion for plastic texture'd paint , I did about three coats, use as many coats as you like to get the texture you want, It spray's a creamy white, then I used Krylon's fusion satin finesh black over the top of it, I still have to do the clean up you know sand'n the mask edge so I will see how I do'es, I try'd this out on a 59 El Comino bed cover and I like'd it so I thought I would try It on this. I got both cans of the stuff from Walmart. Oh yea! do it outside If you can, there Is plenty of overspray and It textures everthing...

Ok guys I just added some scratch built trim, now thats unusal for me cuz I like my carz smoothed out, anyway I used 0.030 thick plastic sheet cut to a millameter thick, then I'll sand it down I hope to what will look right, like I said this is a first for me so, If It dont look right let me know, so's I can do better the next time I try this, later guys...

[RodneyBad]

The textured roof is looking good

I should try that.

[TooOld]

Oh , my heart's poundin' like crazy ! That chop looks great ! That textured paint works for undercoating and bedliners too !

Really cool project Michael.

OK, now this is the first time I have used this camera with this set up an man I gotta tell ya, yeah I kno bla, bla, bla, get on with the picture already, as you can see I still have some work, that will be next.

[Gothic Kustomz]

Lil update, any thoughts?, like maybe the rear is way to high, yeah I agree with you..

[Gothic Kustomz]

A Lil clean up work to do to the drive shaft tunnel, I wish I knew from what car the rear came from...

[Brizio]

That's very nice!

......The rear is from AMTs '66 Nova pro street. I'll be painting one today for a '63 Fury project. I REALLY like what you have here. I agree with the rear being too high. After you lower it, you could rake the rocker panel line to be parallel with the ground. Otherwise, it looks like you'd have to raise the front a touch?
