crazyjim Posted January 16, 2011 Posted January 16, 2011 I'm building another Revell '32 5 window coupe and wanted to try something different this time so I cutoff the running boards and glued the front fenders to the frame. I then reshaped fenders. The rear fenders were glued on and I reshaped them and added a panel between them. I'll be using the hemi engine in this puppy.
crazyjim Posted January 17, 2011 Author Posted January 17, 2011 Those are the only piccs so far. When I get more work done I'll post more pics.
John Teresi Posted January 19, 2011 Posted January 19, 2011 Jim.....you got a good start......keep it going man.
crazyjim Posted January 19, 2011 Author Posted January 19, 2011 Put the body in prime yesterday. I'm hoping to mold a taillight that will fill the area I created with the Evergreen. It would a full width unit. I haven't figured out how to create,mold, and cast such a piece yet.
crazyjim Posted January 25, 2011 Author Posted January 25, 2011 Just a small update - I'm planning to use '69 Camaro taillights. The chassis is in color so I can start putting that together. The trunk ties into the chassis as does the rear of the passenger compartment, so all that needed final paint before assembly.
Jantrix Posted January 26, 2011 Posted January 26, 2011 Very cool Jim! I'd say you've hit the mark. Very different. Originality counts folks! Anyone who says different is selling replicas.
crazyjim Posted February 11, 2011 Author Posted February 11, 2011 Finally made some progress on my deuce coupe. Here's the interior and chassis. Like the seats? They're my castings and will soon be available from Crazy Scale Auto Parts.
W-409 Posted February 21, 2011 Posted February 21, 2011 Wow, nice seats! They are pretty close to the ones, which are in 1:1 Buick... And racing seats are always great and inportant stuff, also these little more modern style. Nice job with the Ford too. And lots of nice stuff on Crazy Scale Auto Parts, specially 409 parts and that quitar, and and and...
crazyjim Posted February 21, 2011 Author Posted February 21, 2011 Got the coupe painted and I'm putting it together. Next time will be under glass. New items coming soon to Crazy Scale Auto Parts. Several types of valve covers are in the molds setting up and a friend is sending me some to be molded.
Greg Pugh Posted February 21, 2011 Posted February 21, 2011 Can't wait to see it! Nice to some "out-of-the-box" thinking.
