1964 Pontiac Banchee (custom)

[Oldmopars]

I have been wanting to print a body and try a full build. A member here gave me this file to print and so I thought I would try it. 

Due to the file lackin some details and the issues  had printing it, I am doing a custom. So, it is not fully faithful to the orginal. 

I am using the chassis and interior from the 1974 Corvette Roadster as it s the closest thing I had that woud fit and it has the crrect wheelbase and the interior shape is close. 

I know the original was on a Camero chassis, I did not have one of those.

Moving forward on this I was able to get some color on it. I also added a set of resin wheels and tires. 

Making the windsheild for this was a bit tricky, but I took my spare body and put some clear sheet over the windshield (not cut out) and put it in the toaster oven. I waited untill the sheet sagged down and took the form of the windshield area. While not perfect, it is a way too complex shape to do any other way. 

I am making some tail light panels for it right now and I still have a way to go on the interior, but for a quick curbside build, it is movnig forward.

Oh, yes, it wll be curbside. The body is so thin that I have had to stop trying to fix stuff, it just cracks and breaks causing me to repair it. So, cutting out the hood is not happennig. Even scribbing the body lines deeper put too much pressure on the body. It is just to thin.
