Lyle Willits Posted January 29, 2011 Posted January 29, 2011 Time Machine resin body . AMT Wagonrod donor kit. Grafted in the "ladder louvers" on the hood sides. Eliminated the Wagonrod headlights and sunk in 'Monogram '39 Chevy lights. Wheels are from,,,uh,,,my parts pegboard. Bob Dudek valve covers and exhaust tips. Paint is Valspar mint green (Satin finish), Duplicolor Cream and LOTS of Testors Wet Look Clear, all polished.
Bobdude Posted January 29, 2011 Posted January 29, 2011 Another beauty to add to your impressive collection.
Peter Lombardo Posted January 29, 2011 Posted January 29, 2011 Lyle, great color combination. The headlight treatment worked out very well too. Those "hump" bodies are so different and strange looking to my eye, but yours sure looks sweet. The flame is a nice touch to bring a contrasting color into the picture. This is a very well thought out build, but I expect that from you. Nice.
Chris C Posted January 29, 2011 Posted January 29, 2011 Great colour combo, really works well on this shape. Like the mystery wheels too!
Tumbler75 Posted January 29, 2011 Posted January 29, 2011 Another stunning beauty from the bench of Mr. Lyle! The colours, flames, and wheels work in pure harmony with one another. Great job as usual my friend. Can't wait to see what you build next.
MikeMc Posted January 29, 2011 Posted January 29, 2011 Stunning!!..not a fan of the slanted B pillars..but looks great with the paint
Kanedge Posted January 30, 2011 Posted January 30, 2011 That is very cool, like the unusual colour combo, it works well.
Lyle Willits Posted February 2, 2011 Author Posted February 2, 2011 Very nice, Lyle! What can you tell us about that air cleaner? It's cool, and kind of unusual-looking. It's an old wheel cover (Studebaker, I think) from the junk parts box, surrounded by sheet plastic, a "flexible tube" (plastic) cut from a '91 Mercury Cougar air cleaner, a couple of bits of plastic, paint and BMF.,,,,,,,,just to be different.

Nice Build there Lyle and yep the Wheel Cover is fron the '63 Avanti Ed
Sixties Sam Posted February 2, 2011 Posted February 2, 2011 Very nice model! The colors look really good together, and the flames add a nice touch. Great work! Sam
