1959scudetto Posted October 2, 2022 Posted October 2, 2022 (edited) Another long gone, old school build: built in 1987/88 from the then-new amt/ERTL release in their short-lived "customizing Series" - as usual: box stock straight from the box, blackwash for the grille, spraypainted with car laquers, trim brushed Humbrol silver (no polishing, no further detailing): Edited October 2, 2022 by 1959scudetto 6
David G. Posted October 2, 2022 Posted October 2, 2022 Nice color for the body style, good solid looking build, it looks great! David G.
TooOld Posted October 2, 2022 Posted October 2, 2022 That's really nice Helmut , such a beautiful body style ! We had a '66 LeSabre when I was a kid , not as sporty but still a great looking car .
Modlbldr Posted October 2, 2022 Posted October 2, 2022 Beautiful looking car. I just finished a custom 65 and while looking at the body I thought how nice a stock one would look. I'll have to build one someday soon. Later-
espo Posted October 2, 2022 Posted October 2, 2022 Great clean looking body trim. Unusually bright color for this car, but it sure looks good.
AMT68 Posted October 2, 2022 Posted October 2, 2022 Great looking paint finish. I love this old promo style kit. I built this Customizing Series version when it was first issued then found and built one about three years ago when I got back into the hobby.
Kah puts Posted October 2, 2022 Posted October 2, 2022 Just a beautiful Buick, your building style brings out the best of this kit.
bisc63 Posted October 5, 2022 Posted October 5, 2022 Nice job! Looks great in red, and the finish is impressive.
TransAmMike Posted October 5, 2022 Posted October 5, 2022 Nice work Helmut on a good looking car. I too think it looks great in red!!
1959scudetto Posted October 10, 2022 Author Posted October 10, 2022 Thank you all for your comments, fellows l- while my model is nothing special, I like the flowing lines of the body contours (compare this with the Ford Galaxie of the same model year in the background)
