Frankenstein

[Spooky 52]

I had the front clip from a '57 Chevy left over from a project, and an old '55 kit, sitting not being useful when I got the idea to combine the two on a stormy night. As a tribute to Peter Boyle (Young Frankenstein) and Ernie Anderson a.k.a. Ghoulardi, (host of WJW TV 3 Fright Night in Cleveland, Ohio. Made the decals myself.)

Nice tribute, Need to set up drag race between that and a car for 'Big John and Lil' Chuck?

Ernie Anderson the voice of ABC network, writer for Carol Burnett, tagged along with Tim Conway and Joe Flynn to Hollywood.

Nothing like staying up late and getting WJW on the TV and seeing Ghoulardi do his antics,

Great looking body work. This could have been done on the 1:1 car as well, just don't remember seeing it done. The paint and trim are all cleanly done.

That’s just awesome!

And Young Frankenstein is one of my favorites.  So many great lines!

While I was a sophomore, a senior was driving the opposite of this ('57 chevy with the front clip of a '55 on it) at the high school I went to. He was in auto shop. Him and his Dad put it together. I also built his car first.

Both fine models. Nice tribute car. Very pretty and nicely melded 57. Thanks for sharing.
