'63 XL

[old-hermit]

I don't usually build in 1/25 scale but decided I needed a change of pace.

This will be a full blown custom with probably purple paint and flames.

First thing was to chop the top and clean the entire body and make it smooth.

Deep dish Cragers and WW's are definately in order.

Just had to install some skirts and mold them in.

More to come.

is 63 the year of the car or the production date of the model ?

Both, but the kit is a later repop of the original.

Decided to go a little 60's on it and close up the rear window. Might even do a half vinyl top.

I also changed to deep dish chrome reverse and full moon caps.

I got the black base coat on and liked it so it will be black with flames.

Sleek looking. I really like the rear wheel closed
