Ron Hamilton Posted November 26, 2009 Author Posted November 26, 2009 Wow, nice save, gorgeous result Where did the wheels come from? The wheels are Modelhaus' '54-'57 Buick Skylark wires, detail painted.
Ron Hamilton Posted November 26, 2009 Author Posted November 26, 2009 (edited) Ron That is amazing! You know I like Buicks too. Is there an other Buick on the horizon? uhhhh, yeah! I haven't decided on which one. Edited November 26, 2009 by Ron Hamilton
Sixties Sam Posted November 26, 2009 Posted November 26, 2009 Amazing transformation! Really nice work!
Bernard Kron Posted November 26, 2009 Posted November 26, 2009 More than a restoration, an optimization! The result is a stunningly beautiful car.
charlie8575 Posted November 26, 2009 Posted November 26, 2009 A big, black, chrome-frosted Buick convertible with a red-and-white interior. Mmmmmm, among my favorite varietals of automotive creation. Beautiful job. Charlie Larkin
Foxer Posted November 26, 2009 Posted November 26, 2009 This is stubbing! The smooth black and those wire wheels really set it off!
James Flowers Posted November 26, 2009 Posted November 26, 2009 I love the way you can take a old built up and make it look so great. Looking forward to everyone you do.
Greg Cullinan Posted November 29, 2009 Posted November 29, 2009 Wow! That is sick how you took suck a monster and turned it into such a beauty.Gives me hope with some of my models I have completed that maybe one day I can redo them.
Eshaver Posted November 29, 2009 Posted November 29, 2009 I like it , it's a REAL KAR , so dats dat !!! Ed Shaver
mr moto Posted December 1, 2009 Posted December 1, 2009 (edited) MAN!! That thing looks good enough to eat! Maybe some model company (hint, hint) will see this and issue some new tailfin era kits. The '60 Buick (and the '59) would be a great start. Beautiful work. You saved great a one!! Edited December 1, 2009 by mr moto

Ron Hamilton Posted April 20, 2016 Author Posted April 20, 2016 Thanks for all of the replies on this one, which has a very special place. When I was painting it, I received the call from my uncle that my father passed. I had to finish it in a style that would do him proud. He would have loved it.I just finished another glue-bomb. I hope to photograph it, and post it this weekend. My photo bucket is not working properly, so I have to use another posting site.
