bogger44 Posted May 1 Posted May 1 Finished this one up last evening. I had the need to slam a curbside together to help cleanse the palate of sorts, and this one did the trick. She's completely box stock other than the side mirror I dug out from the parts box, and filing down the wing window frames a bit. Hosed down in Tamiya Base White, while the interior was treated to Model Master Nassau Blue with Tamiya transparent blue accents. Looks good on the shelf. Thanks for looking and any comments/questions. 17 1
Chuckyg1 Posted May 1 Posted May 1 Nice build. I'm lovin that interior, great detail and perfect compliment to the exterior color.
AMT68 Posted May 1 Posted May 1 Super nice build and I admire the work on the work on the two tone seats.
bobss396 Posted May 1 Posted May 1 One of my favorite cars, I had 3 real ones. Looks super, how did the side trim foiling go? It looks clean.
Jim B Posted May 1 Posted May 1 Beautiful Galaxie. Well done. Sometimes a simple, curbside, box-stock build is needed.
espo Posted May 1 Posted May 1 Great looking paint finish and chrome trim. Like how you did the interior colors.
happy grumpy Posted May 1 Posted May 1 These kit are really fun to build and yours turned out really nice. Color combo fits perfectly.
bogger44 Posted May 1 Author Posted May 1 (edited) Thanks guys! For being such a simple kit it really presents itself well. I forgot to mention in the original post that I did deepen the panel lines, as well as scribing in a couple missing ones. 10 hours ago, bobss396 said: One of my favorite cars, I had 3 real ones.

While trimming the foil the knife took well to edge of the trim, allowing for some pretty straight lines. Edited May 1 by bogger44 1
maxwell48098 Posted May 2 Posted May 2 Outstanding build. I remember being a teenager and riding in my uncle Henry's white '64 Galaxie 50XL. The interior in his was red and it also had a 427!
Street Rod Posted May 4 Posted May 4 Beautiful Galaxie! The paint looks great and the interior compliments it perfectly.
