65' El Camino gets a haircut

[skymnky721]

Greetings and happy fall to all,,hey that ryhmes.  So  I got this  AMT   kit  at walmart last x-mas,,finally getting round to it.  I wanted something different than just the Elky by its self.   So I gave it a haircut,,and made it california car.  Sprayed with Tamiya  blue rattlecan,,same with  the underside,,with handpainted details,,added  some basic wiring  ect.  Scatch built roll bar,,,trimmed fender openings,,Scratch built headrests,,trimmed kit supplied radiator support ,,, Now all I need to do is have Chip Foose build me one  for a million $$$.  We can only dream now cant we?   Cheers. S

Hi Scott,

cool and creative idea! I know how one feels after a build with chopping involved turns out fine. Engine bay looks great!
