What's up fellas, this is going to be my latest project, I picked this body and scoop at the show in Atlanta, I'll be working on this in between finishing up the 68 in the background and the 63 chevy 2 here's a few mock ups for you...

Tyrone... I cant wait to see you knock this one out the park like your last build. I will be folowing along for sure. Looking forward to seeing what you have in store for this build.

Man Tyrone, did you take stock out on that repop since you use those cool wheels on most of your builds? :D I really do like those front and rear wheels you use.. This will be an interesting build, because I know you will do this one as much if not more justice than the last!

Thanks Jerry and Chris I appreciate it....

Thanks Michael, and yes this is the new flashpoint body...

Thanks Bart, I actually robbed these wheels off the chevy 2 for mock ups, but I do really like these wheels, every time I go to my LHS I check for these, can never have enough nice wheels lol....I guess I'll put these kits on ebay minus the wheels, since all I use are the wheels.....

Thanks Andy, just keep at it and you'll get there, It took me a long time to get to where I am now, but you do good work dude..

That body is the best 68 promod body IMO. Im Glad flashpoint finally started making them. Keep us updated!

I have to agree with you on that one, when I saw it I had to have it....

Thanks joe...

This is going to be interesting. Typical Pro Modified body, narrow and really low and aerodynamic. :D It'll look really good when finished, I'm sure about that. Keep it going, I'll be watching this one. B)

O.K. Tyrone, thought I would help you out with an idea for a paint scheme. I know that you tend to lean towards just a basic one color scheme for most of your builds (which is cool) but I was looking at this mockup and for some reason the following came to mind.

The car looks good in white, albeit a brighter painted white than what is seen here in resin. Paint the body some form of bright white but with some mild graphics added to it. To contrast, the hood could be a bright blue to set it off from the rest of the car. And, this image below could be added to the hood along with a string of matching skulls running along the rocker panels, and even around the front valence and lower rear area as well.

Ultimately it's your build to create your own paint scheme but I thought I'd throw this idea out there. If you like I can put it all together on a sheet for you.
