evilone Posted August 17, 2010 Posted August 17, 2010 This was a 24hr build for a friendly challenge a while back i had. As you see i took the most LOUD colors as possable and used them on this build.But now its time to revisit this build and make it right,cool,and non-friendly.Its my version of frankenstein LOL.Plans are simple make it a lead-slead,engine swap,custom interior (thanks lindenburg for cutting corners ),and a custom frame . Heres where its at now
Railfreak78 Posted August 17, 2010 Posted August 17, 2010 Yeah I'd say these colors do not fit you very well. I cant' wait to see the tranformation.
Chuck Most Posted August 18, 2010 Posted August 18, 2010 Actually it was Pyro who cut the corners. Lindberg just saw some reason to reissue the kit! It'll take a lot of work for this kit to look cool, but seeing what you've done in the past I think you can make something cool out of it!
evilone Posted August 22, 2010 Author Posted August 22, 2010 Well after two consecutive late nights (staying up till 5am) i got the rear fenders reworked and the flush trunk deck started. Still have to fill in the continental kit and wait for the chemical reaction between the styrine and the bodyfiller to calm down but hopefully i'll finish the rearend this weekso i can start the front fenders next week
Romell R Posted August 23, 2010 Posted August 23, 2010 cant wait to see where you take this one your builds are always so interesting
Chuck Most Posted August 23, 2010 Posted August 23, 2010 Two nights up until 5AM sounds about right for fitting the fenders on that particular kit! Looking great so far.
evilone Posted September 12, 2010 Author Posted September 12, 2010 So i have had alot on my plate lately and have had o time until today to get anything done on this thing. So i decided to bust this beast out and get to work. Heres where it is so far. now for the frenched tail ligts and then some primer and the rear is done
RodneyBad Posted September 12, 2010 Posted September 12, 2010 I can tell already that will be one Cool Ride. Hope to see it finished.. Nice work.
LAone Posted September 12, 2010 Posted September 12, 2010 like what you have going here evilone. fellow maggot i see and a possible neighbor as well..
evilone Posted September 14, 2010 Author Posted September 14, 2010 Got some preliminary work done on the front fenders, started the carson top,and decided to do a mock up. Pics Now its time to reduce the front of the passenger compartment to fit between the front fenders, French the head lights,Add some 59 caddy taillights and french those as well, Chop the carson top,Add so L.E.D's to light it up,lengthen the fram to match the body lengthening,Add a front clip to mount a motor,Detail it ALOT,And drag the other builder to hell with it LOL. I think thats about it LOL
Chuck Most Posted September 15, 2010 Posted September 15, 2010 Glad to see some progress on this one again!
evilone Posted October 24, 2010 Author Posted October 24, 2010 pics up in a bit as soon as they load (WARNING) this build went a different path though
evilone Posted October 24, 2010 Author Posted October 24, 2010 So its ready for the final sanding and heres where its at now the different path it took was the change in bodies.I replaced the boring lincoln body with a 36 ford body.I figured that it looked better and gave it better lines rather then a FLAT boring shape.
