'57 Chevy 150

[TransAmMike]

I just recently completed this.   The kit is the  Revell '57 Chevy Black Widow.   I tubbed the rear wheel wells to fit the 265/60R15 (10" wide) BFG Iceman resin tires. Fronts are 205/70R15's.  The Crager's were printed for me by member Zippi, who also printed and furnished the Flowmaster mufflers.  Thanks again my Friend!!

Paint is Createx Pearl Black (more of a dark charcoal actually) over gray Styrenlez primer.  Clear is also Createx.

By the way, I decided to just do this as a curbside.  Just lazy I guess.

 

                                                         

                                                        

                                                        

                                                                       

                                                       

                                                                           

 

 

    Thanks for looking 😄

That’s one slick looking 57!

Like the base model with the day-2 look. Great paint color and finish. Clean chrome trim. Great chassis detailing and unique stock interior pattern.

I appreciate it Harry.   I'd like to take credit for the interior "treatment" but it's decals that come with the kit.

Thanks Buddy.   Yep, I took some picture with the red backdrop and really liked how it looks with the charcoal paint.

This looks awesome. The Cragars and black paint are spot on. Kinda wish I’d built my 57 150 in a similar way. Top stuff. 👍🏻

Killer '57 Mike!

Good looking Chevy, Mike. Classic wheel choice.

Great looking boulevard basher. Very reminiscent of the working man's hot rod from years gone by. Keep up the good work.
