Little Georgia Shaker T-bolt

[Immortal Chips]

Hi all, just completed the second addition to my Hubert Platt stable, the Little Georgia Shaker Thunderbolt. It is built from the Revell Platt T-bolt kit but went with a slightly darker shade of blue and stuck with the factory steel wheels over the chrome Howard Racing wheels. Thanks for looking.

Nice build on both.  Everything on the business end looks nice and clean.

Very nice! Love the color on this one.

That's a nice blue and excellent build execution.

I have a soft spot for the T-Bolts, and this one looks great.

Beautiful execution on one of Revell’s best 1/25 auto kits. The black steelies are a great choice with the dark blue, gives it a realistic understated early ‘60’s super stocker look. The decals and your application of them are very nice - are they a Fred Cady set?

Thanks John, no the decals actually came with the Revell kit.

What a clean, sharp build! VERY well done and model on!

Nice job Nick!  That blue is stunning _ I used it on my 63 Galaxie slot car with similar effect. It loves the sunlight!  Like others have said, the black wheels really add to the factory no-frills vibe.

Cheers

Thanks Alan, it is a nice shade of blue which complements well with racing decals.

Great build! Spent an afternoon with Hubert a long time ago what a nice man and the stories he had were great

[ChrisR]

Very nice!

[Bainford]

Sweet T-Bolt. Hubert's stuff always looks cool, and your build nailed the look. Well done.

Very nice build, and that color just transported me back to when I was a little kid and my Uncle painted his '66 Mustang a very similar Metallic Blue color! 

[slusher]

Beautiful build and great color choice.!
