Custom Chevelle

Recommended Posts

Custom chevelle built for my grandson. Grafted on a new Camaro top, used the interior, wheels and glass from the Camaro, I had to lengthen the Camaro chassis to fit the Chevelle wheel base. Used a burning sprue to get the marble effect on the stripes, Side stripes are hand cut before painting them..Used a flame mask on the back of the side stripes. Paint is Testors Diamond dust base coat with Tamiya Light blue metallic used on the side stripes, and then Tamiya clear blue over entire body and finally top coated with Clear gloss. You can see this build in the on the workbench during buildup. Thanks for looking and as always all comments are welcomed.

I'm normally not one that digs these sort of things but I have to say......that is a really good looking car. It flows well and looks like it could kick some serious Mustang butt! Well done!! I'm sure your grandson will be tickled.

(If not, pm me for my address. I'll be your grandson) :D

This is really interesting concept. I like that Camaro top, it fits really nicely to Chevelle body shapes. Usually I don't like those big wheels, but they fit nicely to this. Just because this looks like concept and would be Chevrolet's car model on 2012. Great job with it, paintjob is amazing too. I like it.
