rv1963 Posted July 29 Share Posted July 29 Did this a long time ago, really fun build. I wanted a car that was very used and abused but still on the street as a daily driver. All comments welcome. 13 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJMar Posted July 30 Share Posted July 30 From the weathering, to the mismatched wheels, to the DD box on the front seat...I swear this was parked in my college student lot circa 1987.👍🏼 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

espo Posted July 30 Share Posted July 30 As the saying goes " Looks like it has been ridden hard and put away wet". A term usually referring to a horse though. Realistic looking body damage and rust. May have even been a PD car at one time? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

STU111 Posted July 31 Share Posted July 31 Love the realistic rust. Something I’m still learning to do. Sometimes I think it’s harder to do a beat up vehicle than a show car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Speedpro Posted August 3 Share Posted August 3 So did you have a 1:1 that this was based on. If not, that's some excellent creativity right there! Very nice! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rv1963 Posted August 3 Author Share Posted August 3 Thanks Scott, thanks Paul, no 1 to 1 just came from my warped little mind, lol. Thanks to everybody who commented on this build, since it has received over 500 views I am going to do Wip starting soon showing what and how I do my street beaters cars should be a fun build.
