R. Thorne Posted June 11 Share Posted June 11 (edited) This build was gonna be a replica of my friend Thomas Arnett’s car, but, lack of wheels and the unusual paint trim waylaid those plans. This build represents a Stocker from about 2008 era. Paint was Tamiya TS10 French blue (applied 3 times due to operator clumsiness) and TS30 silver leaf. Details of my screw up are in the WIP section. By the way, I still only used 1 can of the TS10 paint. It was a fun build and many new and different things were tried out. Maybe now I can finish the 56 and 57 Chevies. Edited June 11 by R. Thorne Add 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maurice Henderson Posted June 11 Share Posted June 11 Nice job on the build..Clean looking A/SA like you would see at any drag strip..I really like you added the Cal-tracs to the rear suspension..You won't find too many Stockers at the track without that system on them..Nice addition to all the other features..Job well done.
