tuffone20 Posted March 13, 2010 Posted March 13, 2010 Ok I'm going to call this one done! I do have to touch up a spot on the right front fender. But other then that it's done.
oldscool Posted March 13, 2010 Posted March 13, 2010 Wow! That looks great! Nice smooth paint and body work and I love the grille. If it were mine I would put some wheel covers and lakes pipes on it. But it still looks great just like it is. oldscool
RodneyBad Posted March 13, 2010 Posted March 13, 2010 Looking great. Paint looks super. I like the sidetrim Grill looks great Nice work on the top. Great work.
RodBurNeR Posted March 13, 2010 Posted March 13, 2010 Nice ride! I really like what ya did with the grille!
tuffone20 Posted March 13, 2010 Author Posted March 13, 2010 Thanks guys!!

Anyways again thanks for the replies and now I have to go the the Good Guys show!! Day 2 of another long day having to looking at a much of old cars!!!! Marty

Sixties Sam Posted March 14, 2010 Posted March 14, 2010 Smoooth, Marty! I like it a lot! Is that two Edsel grilles in the front? Very creative! Sam
Railfreak78 Posted March 14, 2010 Posted March 14, 2010 You can't be done with this beauty Marty, It's been a project so long it wouldn't be normal
W-409 Posted March 14, 2010 Posted March 14, 2010 That's looking nice! I love classic Chevys and old school cars. This one is so smooth and paintjob is very nice. Engine is nice too is it from Revell's '58 Impala?
crazyjim Posted March 14, 2010 Posted March 14, 2010 Looking real good. But what happened to "MOPAR or no car"?
Mooneyzs Posted March 14, 2010 Posted March 14, 2010 Wow Gorgeous!!! Very Nice!!! Love what you did hear with this kit. the color is beautiful.
tuffone20 Posted March 15, 2010 Author Posted March 15, 2010 (edited) Looking real good. But what happened to "MOPAR or no car"? Well that is only for real cars!! And remember I started building this one some 20 plus years ago and was before I knew any better............ Edited March 15, 2010 by tuffone20

Engine is nice too is it from Revell's '58 Impala? No I used parts from the '57's 409 and the intake came from '62 Bel Air and the Air cleaner is from the '55 Chevy stepside truck.

Cobrawannabe Posted March 15, 2010 Posted March 15, 2010 That looks flat-out baaad, man! Great, great build.
Nick Winter Posted March 15, 2010 Posted March 15, 2010 Marty, I'm a truck guy, I'm a firebird guy, I normally dispise custom vehicles, but this one I can't keep my eyes off of, It's so cool, I hope you don't mind but I'm thinking of doing something similar on a '50 Chevy truck. but In Red. Or orange.
Dr. Cranky Posted March 15, 2010 Posted March 15, 2010 Ooh, I like that front grill. Great job all around. The color is very interesting.
tuffone20 Posted March 20, 2010 Author Posted March 20, 2010 Ooh, I like that front grill. Great job all around. The color is very interesting. Thanks!! I didn't like the way the chrome was looking on the grill so I took it apart and stripped it and put some Alcad on it and I took some better photos of it.
jedimastergary Posted March 20, 2010 Posted March 20, 2010 looks great like how it sits and all the custom details
