RDean58 Posted January 19, 2021 Share Posted January 19, 2021 I finished up the interior today and got half of the side chrome done. Dash, center console arm rest, and custom steering wheel painted Testors' Revving Red. Rear seat backs highlighted with Testors' 1204 red. Flooring done with Kens fuzzy fur maroon flocking. The chrome was done with a molotow chrome pen. Dash buttons gloss white and gauge faces done with semi-gloss black. The custom roof panels and rear glass came from another 63 Galaxie convertible I have. Body is also painted Testors' Revving Red with wet look clear. I'll be using the flip upside glass on this. The custom rear treatment comes from about three different custom treatments that came in the kit. Kit supplied big bullet tail lights are glued to smaller round filler lights that have been BMF'd. It's came a long way from when I first got it eh? Thanks for looking, all comments welcomed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beamerman Posted January 19, 2021 Share Posted January 19, 2021 I love this kit. I know its not best quality but sets me back in time to the great kustom era...i also working on one. Great job...like it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
espo Posted January 19, 2021 Share Posted January 19, 2021 Interesting looking custom body parts. I don't recall ever seeing that roof treatment before and I like the rear window setup. The square steering wheel is in keeping with the time and theme of this model, they should have made it a little smaller in scale as it looks like it would hit the door when turning. I like the way you put the foil in the tail lights. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

misterNNL Posted January 20, 2021 Share Posted January 20, 2021 Yet another great glue bomb save under way. Looking ready for the angel hair display on the show floor at a Carl Casper show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
