H.A.K Posted April 15, 2023 Author Share Posted April 15, 2023 My daughter's 59 caddie update. Got the paint done. Just working on the chrome trim. All but the Eldorado trim is the chrome pen. At 15, she killed that chrome trim. Interior is all done. We outlined the seat inserts with black piping. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jsc Posted April 15, 2023 Share Posted April 15, 2023 Has she had any issues with this kit? I'm stumped with my hardtop - it seems the body doesn't want to go all the way down on the chassis. Any tips? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KWT Posted April 16, 2023 Share Posted April 16, 2023 Wow... she's better at trim work than I am. Impressive! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That way she could get the pen tip to sit in the middle of the edges where the time is going and it should balance out the trim. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve H Posted April 16, 2023 Share Posted April 16, 2023 Hi Samuel, this is awesome to see. I was able to build one (pink) model with my daughter and unfortunately that was it. I really enjoyed it and so did she. I also built her a pink Toyota Prius a while back, one of my favourite builds. Your daughter is doing a great job on this, who doesn’t love a pink Caddy?!! Cheers, Steve 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H.A.K Posted April 21, 2023 Author Share Posted April 21, 2023 So we got the body done. Well, for the most part. Enough to go to the next step. To put the windshield in and interior. Then to add the chassis to the body. Started adding to rest of the details to the engine bay. Then she got tired. So more to come. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
