kymdlr Posted November 9, 2019 Posted November 9, 2019 (edited) Found a vintage picture from a local PD that inspired this build. Pretty much straight out of the box. I added the door shields & changed the wheel covers from the kit pieces. Edited November 9, 2019 by kymdlr Photo
donb Posted November 10, 2019 Posted November 10, 2019 Nicely done. I had to chuckle about the Radar Patrol decal on the 1:1.

espo Posted November 10, 2019 Posted November 10, 2019 Great looking '57. Nice engine detailing and chrome trim on the body. What Hub Caps did you use ?

The radar back then was probably the size of a refrigerator! I’d love to get the decal printed to match the photo though!

Great model though - really like it!
