car-man666 Posted January 27, 2012 Author Posted January 27, 2012 I really like this one it looks like the ones that were parked in the lot when I was in High School. But unless after almost 50 years my memory is starting to fade, isn't the foot pedal supposed to for the right foot? maibe a lefty driver

Qwit Pushin Posted January 28, 2012 Posted January 28, 2012 Here's mine, posted here a while back, and nicknamed 'Wild Cherry'...... Mike Love how 'deep' the paint is on this! What paint/color(s) did you use to accomplish this stunning finish?
Mazdat Posted January 28, 2012 Posted January 28, 2012 Here's one that I've been working on and off, I hope to get done this year sometime...
Bluzboy66 Posted January 28, 2012 Posted January 28, 2012 Love how 'deep' the paint is on this! What paint/color(s) did you use to accomplish this stunning finish? Thanks Mike G.! That's House of Kolor Candy Red Base with my own custom-mixed Candy Red on top, followed by 2-part clear. The real magic is in the Candy Red intermediate coat......that's what gives the paint job a deep look. Mike

The Modeling Hermit Posted February 5, 2012 Posted February 5, 2012 I recently did a thread on this car. It's a 62 El Camino that's based on the Bel Air level. I did make a couple of minor alterations to it though.

Chillyb1 Posted April 16, 2012 Posted April 16, 2012 (edited) I started building model cars again only about six years ago. As an adult possessed of much more patience than I had as a teenager, and with all the advances in tools and supplies available to the scale automobile modeler, I took to the hobby enthusiastically. The AMT kit was one of the first that I built and on which I experimented with a lot of stuff I'd never tried before. It is a really great kit and I'll have to get another someday, though it isn't really my thing. On this build I shaved the trim (because I messed something up trying to foil it), opened up the door handles, made my own seat belts, mixed the body color and used an airbrush for the first time, split the front seat (at the suggestion of a fellow modeler, and it really made a difference), and probably some other stuff. It was a real skill builder for me. I'm still happy with how it came out, though I'm sure I could do a better job on it now. And Cool Hand, I'm nominating yours for the Best in Thread award. That thing is so sharp you could carve granite with it. Edited April 16, 2012 by Chillyb1
