plumnuts Posted November 24, 2008 Posted November 24, 2008 I like to build two at a time, due to drytime or frustration setting in. one I will chop up and fab on ,and the other will build box stock for the most part. I havent posted pics of the boxstocks before cause there nothing special ,but this one is comming out good enough that I wanted to share. (i'm glad I found this site, for the motivation and ideas. thanks to all of ya.) I'll be wiring the motor with red wire.
GOTH KUSTOMS Posted November 24, 2008 Posted November 24, 2008 (edited) From the look's of the frame It's gotta good start. Brother we are all insperation, and motavation, to each other, thank you for shareing you're build's with me, and us... Edited November 24, 2008 by unforgiven
plumnuts Posted November 24, 2008 Author Posted November 24, 2008 Bro its all good. this kit seems to be fitting good, im going stock on everything except paint.(and maybe wheels) can,t really get wrapped around the light green and scallips. how about some feed back on colors or grafix on this 55.
GOTH KUSTOMS Posted November 24, 2008 Posted November 24, 2008 (edited) Well what do you want the paint to say, HAY LOOK AT ME, or I'M COME"NG FOR YOU, you know that green an scallop's na I dont think it would fit, match the paint to the subtle detail paint you put on the motor, with a splash of red like the wire's, just a thought.

plumnuts Posted November 25, 2008 Author Posted November 25, 2008 dude Im really diggen your signature. the ranchero has a wicked paint going on. what do you think about the colors on the ranchero layed out in the tradetional 55 pattern with the grays and the traditional molding line replaced with a sort of tribal like red stripe (looking traditional but with more sweep than straight)?

Dude that would be kinda slick, a little old scool with a twist, but yet not a hard twist, yeah I can see that in my head, I say go for it, pull it off... OH the car you're talking about is actually a Plymouth Duster turnd Camino, I thought it was darn slick myself,and if I ever get another Duster kit, I'll get an El Camino kit too, and try to pull this off. ( If someone dont beat me to it )
plumnuts Posted November 26, 2008 Author Posted November 26, 2008 sorry ,can't draw, but this is what is going through the brain on paint. what do you think? bottom in gunmetal gray stripe in mica red and top in light silver.

plumnuts Posted December 3, 2008 Author Posted December 3, 2008 Man I was thinking we lost you there for awhile. Keep'em coming man I wanna see the paint, looks awesome, starting to come together... had to go to NC. for the thanksgiving thing. really wanted to build but, decided to leave the tools at home and actually hang with the family. not a total bust though, stopped at the hobby lobby(don't have em here in SC.) and picked up some testors lacquer (again not in Charleston) and the next project. 07 mustang shelby 500. but now I'm back on the bench and havin fun. (ROLL CAGES SUCK!)
plumnuts Posted December 14, 2008 Author Posted December 14, 2008 this one had got put on the back burner due to the coupster, but had to let some things dry so I worked on this a little more and figured I'd show the finished chasis. I'll be posting the finished product under glass. final paint on body going on when weather warms up I'll put a note here when I post finished product.
GOTH KUSTOMS Posted December 15, 2008 Posted December 15, 2008 Had to click to see the full size, so's I could see all the great work you put into this build, you did an awesome job man, cant wait to see this under, the under glass thread awesome work my friend, just awesome.
