55 Chevy Camette

[Twist67]

Hi there,

I´ve started a little custom project last year.I used an old build 55 Chevy Cameo and the rearend of an 1998 Corvette.The frame for the Chevy came from the Revell Dodge Sidewinder showtruck,the wheels came from Aoshima.The engine I use was taken from the Corvette.

I put some paint on the Chevy last weekend.The lighter tone came from Mercedes Benz called Champagnergold metallic,the darker color came from Opel called Apache Metallic.Both came from spray cans.I added two coats of clear.Now I have top polish the body.The frame,grill and headlights will get the same darker color.I´ll add some BMF to the trimlines.After that I have to finish the interior and the engine.After the paint is done there isn´t so much work to do to the car.

Here are the pictures:

please tell me what you think about the color combo.Thx for looking,

Cheers,Chris

Man, I'm coming to Germany! You guys are awsome builders. I love the paint. If I was going to change anything it would be to lower the bed top a little but don't get me wrong, I love that truck and the chop job is just right. Beautiful work. :roll:

Now that is some cool body work! That Corvette rear just flows into the rear end!
