sweptline64 Posted April 16, 2010 Posted April 16, 2010 Ok everybody this is where i'm going to show off my current projects first off is my first car after a ten year break from building models (it wasn't by choice but life got in the way) well i'm back and here is my '67 chevelle ss396 that i built. sorry about the pic quality i'll try to get better ones up as soon as i get a better camera.
charlie8575 Posted April 16, 2010 Posted April 16, 2010 Great start; what paint did you use for the interior? I've been trying to find something that's in the neighborhood of the turquoise interiors used in the 1960s, and that's a pretty good start for a lot of them. Charlie Larkin
sweptline64 Posted April 16, 2010 Author Posted April 16, 2010 Next is one that i'm building for my wife she asked me ever so nicely to build it for her it's a peterbuilt model 359 1/20th scale big rig that as of this date has a new front bumper full fenders in the rear the rear frame has been smoothed out i'm working on smoothing the mold lines up on the tanks i will be making new straight stacks for the exhaust and i don't know what else yet.
sweptline64 Posted April 16, 2010 Author Posted April 16, 2010 the paint i used on the interior is model master turquoise enamel paint #2765

Railfreak78 Posted July 3, 2010 Posted July 3, 2010 Nice projects and I love the Pete. Looks like something Chrome Shop Mafia would do. I met one of those guys and love the fact the give truckers cool looking rides. I like the fenders and look this is taking.
