1955 El Camino

[NOBLNG]

I had lots of fun building this one.🙂 This was an AMT ‘55 Nomad kit. It came with the half roof option, but it needed a fair bit of modification to fit and look good. The bed is made from real walnut edge veneer. The engine and trans are from a Revell 2002 Camaro. Paint is a mixture of Tamiya metallic red and metallic black. Thanks for looking and all comments welcome.😎 Build thread here: https://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/topic/193789-‘55-el-camino/#comments

Looks great.

Beautiful paint work and colors. Looking at the body finish and trim someone might not realize just how much effort was put into the body. Great engine and chassis detailing.

Beautiful work. If it had a 265 in it, you'd swear G.M. made them. Stunning job with this one👍👍
